If you want to modify any details in your application, you will have to first delete your old application. Once you click on the dustbin icon, you will get a prompt asking to give consent for deletion of application form.
I have personally verified this option to be working when the application status is “Pending At Employer“. I have NOT verified it for any other case. In case you have, please leave a comment for benefit of others. Also, there may be sometimes issue at EPFO end which may cause your application to be stuck. So exercise the option with Caution!

Dear Sir / Madam,
I have submitted my higher service application already. However I did not know about adding rows for multiple service locations and hence now my last service details only are seen in the acknowledgement of submitted form. Please guide me about how to rectify the same?
I had submitted my application online. Now it can’t uploaded from the employer side . It shows the Date of Joining and Date of Leaving on the same date. I am joinig the Kerala State Beverages Co-orpertaion on 11-04-2013 and i am till continue my service. How can change my data correction in onlie
I had submitted my aplication on line it was rejected by employer. Now I am unable to delet my application or resubmit it with correction.
On demand employer gave a reason that my application should have date of joining old employer PF no date of leaving old employer,
Joining new employment.
Since on line form section ( 9) column is prefilled and there was no instruction to fill additional information . Many applicants also did not fill those details and still their forms was approved.
What is my option should I wait for communication from EPFO or should go in for grivences.
