EPFO portal issues hurt job prospects for subscribers

in5points
EPFO members report overlapping employment records and missing data on the EPFO portal after a recent system migration under the CITES project.
Affected subscribers like Hasham Ishaq discovered errors only after clearing job interviews, risking delayed or blocked offer release.
Employers rely on EPFO service history for background verification, potentially rejecting applicants due to these errors.
EPFO has not provided a clear timeline for fixing the discrepancies, leaving affected job seekers without recourse.
