EPFO Update: Deadline Extended for iGOT Karmayogi Mandatory Courses (2025-26)

The Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya National Academy of Social Security (PDUNASS), functioning under the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO), has released an urgent circular dated May 20, 2026. This circular brings an important administrative update regarding the completion of mandatory courses and comprehensive assessments on the iGOT Karmayogi platform for the 2025-26 reporting year.

Key Highlights of the Circular

  • Extended Deadline: The final date for completing the prescribed mandatory courses and comprehensive assessments has been officially extended to May 31, 2026, or before the due date for submitting your self-appraisal in APAR, whichever comes earlier.
