how much percentage of pf can be withdrawn for illness?
You can withdraw your PF for illness or medical emergencies, even while you’re still working! The EPFO allows you to take a partial withdrawal for yourself or immediate family (spouse, children, or parents) when facing major health expenses like hospitalization or life-threatening conditions. The maximum you can withdraw is the lower of your own PF contribution with interest, or 6 months’ basic wages plus dearness allowance or up to ₹1 lakh, whichever amount is lowest.
There’s no minimum years of service required for this withdrawal, and you no longer need medical certificates or supporting forms for most claims, making the process faster and easier. Just log in to the EPFO portal, fill out Form 31, and submit your request under the medical emergency/illness option.
