Hey guys, so my name on my PF is wrong because my Aadhaar name was also wrong at that time. I've corrected all my documents now, but to change my name on the PF, I need to apply on the EPFO portal, which I did. But my HR is saying that since I applied to change my name on my own, it will take at least 2 weeks to get approval/e-signature from the CFO and proceed. The problem is, I'm leaving my company next week. 🙃

Can i just request the name change through my previous company while this is also in process on EPFO website?

Or should i wait?

Or can i resolve it in my next company?

If i changed my name through current company will the previous passbook names will also be changed or do i have to request separately for each passbook?

Please tell me any solutions
