My last day of employment (due to global workforce reduction in a medium sized accounting and business support company) was in December last year. They are dishonest and have found countless reasons not to pay or delay employees salaries, as well as delay payments for most suppliers by 6 months and more (most of them have not been paid even 1 year later).
My MPF account is still labelled as an employee account so I cannot transfer it to another institution. The employer paid me severance (given I was employed for >2 years) and they have tried to deduct the severance sum from my MPF directly (it is legal to do so). However I see that to this day the severance amount has still not been deducted from my MPF. I tried to transfer my MPF to this other institution two months ago but they said that it is still stuck as the MPF is still an employee account.
As I cannot trust my former employer, what can I do to transfer my MPF account and (hopefully - cherry on the cake) have them unable to deduct the severance amount from the MPF (as they already wired it the sum to my bank account).
Should I just file the below form and then the account will automatically be converted to a personal one? Should I mail it to AIA since I am not in Hong Kong at the moment?
Thanks a lot ...
