2. The request shall be forwarded to the Employer’s log-in for accepting or refusing the request.
3. In case the employer accepts the request, the MID shall be de-linked at the level of employer, provided
   contributions have been received for not more than 2 times.
4. In case the employer refuses or does not take any action on the request for 2 weeks or wherever
   contributions have been received in respect of the said member for more than 2 times but up to 6
   times, the De-Linking request shall be escalated to the Regional Office concerned as a task for the
   Dealing Hand (Compliance) at FOINTERFACE for further examination.
5. Dealing Hand after due examination shall submit to the Section Supervisor (Compliance) who would
   then submit it to the RPFC (Compliance) with due recommendations.
6. RPFC(Compliance) shall examine and approve/reject such De-Linking request by recording the
   reasons based on the merit of the request.
7. Separate instructions will be issued later about transfer of such de-linked balances to SRF
