Marriage Invalidates EPF Nominations; Update Immediately

When you get married, your old EPF nomination becomes invalid.

This means you need to update your nomination to make sure your retirement savings go to the right people.

The rule says you must make a new nomination after marriage.

You can choose to nominate your spouse, parents, children, or others.

Updating your nomination is important because it affects your EPF, pension, and insurance benefits.

If you don't update it, your family might have a harder time getting the money if something happens to you.

You can update your nomination online through the EPFO portal.

It's a quick process and doesn't require your employer's approval.

Financial experts advise checking your nomination after big life events like marriage or having a child.
