There are no official forms ,

There are no official forms , although there are unofficial forms people use.

Whether you lose your seniority and grade depends on whether you go on mutual transfer or one way. In the first case , you get seniority and grade of junior and in second case you become junior most in the new division. In both the cases pay will be protected.

For the transfer you can give

For the transfer you can give application to your higher authorities. Whether you will get the transfer or not depends on conditions including vacancy available. You are supposed to get priority in transfer as you wife is in govt service. If you are transfered within division you wont lose anything. Otherwise you lose seniority.

You have to put in  20 years to get pension. So you dont have any chances for pension.

All the railway employees are

All the railway employees are getting each month in fact a part of the salary as advance. For example in Southern Railway before 2010 wage period was from 16 th to 15 th of every month. So when an employee receive salry of October on say 12.11.2009 the sary can be divided inot three portion:

1) from 16.10.2009 to 31.10.2009 for which he actually worked and the bill preparing authority know that you worked from the pay bill sent from the office of employee.

2) from 1.11.2009 to 11.11.2009 for which he actually worked, but the bill preparing authority does not know if you worked or not until the next month bill reach.

2) from 12.11.2009 to 15.11.2009 for which he receive payment in advance.

So find out exactly what was your pay bill period when you quit railways.

 

Respected sir, I was working

Respected sir,

I was working in Railways in Operating department. After tendering technical resignation I joined Central Excise Department. I was relieved on 12.11.2009.

In Railways, salary is paid on the basis of master roll submitted form the station .If some one joines Railway on 08 th day of any month and  the wage period is from  08th day of any month to 07th day of next month then he will get his first salary next month only.My wage period was 08th day of any month to 07th day of next month. On the pay slip, always the name of the month in which I was receiving salary, was appearing .I was getting salary on 13th of every month.I got my last salary on 13.11.2009 and on the pay slip it was written " pay slip for  October 2009".. For the wage period 08.10.2009 to 07.11.2009 and from 08.11.2009 to 12.11.2009  I have not received any salary.When I enquired about my  salary for the above said period, railway authorities replied that employees are getting advance salary and you have already been paid salary for 08.10.2009 to 07.11.2009 and  for 5 days i.e.from 08.11.2009 to 12.11.2009 they asked central excise to pay the salary in the L.P.C. communicated to central excise. Central excise department says that they cannot pay salary due to any other department.
