Provident Fund Payment Status and Receipt using TRRN

Provident Fund payment by employers is now accepted online only and not any more through banks as it was earlier accepted before December 2016. Provident Fund online challan generation and payment is now done through EPFO - Unified Portal only. Even for the payment of the monthly PF Challan, one has to login to the EPFO - Unified Portal. Now even after your PF Challan Payment online, the status of payment is under process and is not reflected immediately. So one is not sure if the payment for the PF Challan for the month has been accepted or rejected. To check this you will have to login again and see after some time. But there is a way one can check the status of the PF Challan payment without login using the TRRN no. of the challan. Here you can also take the printout of the PF Challan payment receipt without actually logging in into the EPFO portal for records.
