    Hi @Lingeswara,

    Good day! Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum and sharing the detail. 

    If you're seeing the message "You need to leave your work organization" when trying to close your Microsoft account, here's how to proceed:

    1. Go to the organizations page

    2. Review your organizations

    You'll see a list of organizations you're part of:

    • Home Organization: You cannot leave this one yourself.
    • Other Organizations: You can leave these if allowed by the organization

    3. Leave the organization

    4. If you can’t leave

    If the Leave button is missing or you get an error:

    • The organization may not allow users to leave on their own.
    • You’ll need to contact the admin or privacy contact of that organization to request removal.

    Once you've left all organizations and canceled any active subscriptions, you can return to the account closure page to complete the process.

    Note: Please understand that our initial response does not always resolve the issue immediately. However, with your help and more detailed information, we can work together to find a right way. 

    Thank you for your patience and your understanding. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.  

    I'm looking forward for your reply.
