Whether your Aadhaar Card and UAN details like name, gender and date of birth are not matching? Are you finding it difficult to correct the same in UAN? EPF UAN name, gender and date of birth correction now can be easily updated using the unified portal. Let us see the process.
All of you are aware that linking Aadhaar with UAN is now mandatory and the deadline of 31st December 2017 is set for this (Ref-How to link Aadhaar to EPF Online without login? and How to link Aadhaar to EPF using online and offline? ).
However many EPF members facing the huge uphill task of updating their name, gender and date of birth in their UAN details. The reasons are two.
# UAN Helpdesk is not functioning properly. Earlier EPFO made it easy to update your details using UAN Helpdesk. However, many of my blog readers faced the issue that UAN Helpdesk not at all working (Ref-How to update or correct EPF UAN details online or offline?).
# If UAN Helpdesk is not functioning properly, then the only option left for employees to update the name, gender and date of birth through their employers. This is the cumbersome and time-consuming process. Because for this update, your employer’s help is required and once this joint declaration submitted to concerned EPFO for fields correction.
Both these process created a huge burden on employees. Because in one way they have to link their Aadhaar to EPF within the deadline and in a second way EPF UAN name, gender and date of birth correction became a lengthy process.
EPF UAN name, gender and date of birth correction – Online procedure
Considering these difficulties EPFO no provided an option where EPF UAN name, gender and date of birth correction can be completed online at ease. Let us see the process.
Step 1-Visit the EPFO’s Unified Member Portal. Log in to the account using your login using UAN number and password. Then under the tab “Manage”, select the option “Modify Basic Details”.
Step 2-Then you have to first enter your Aadhaar number and proceed for the entry of the details like name, gender and date of birth AS PER AADHAAR records.
Step 3-Once you click on update details tab, the below screen will appear. Here you can view the details you entered, check the status of the details updated and also can delete the request. But do remember that employee can delete the request before an employer can approve the request.
Step 4-However, if your UAN is already Aadhaar verified, then you are not allowed to change the details. The message appears as below.
This is how you can proceed with EPF UAN name, gender and date of birth correction online. Once employee submit the request, then the below process will happen at the back end.
# Employer will login to Employer Interface of Unified Portal.
# Employer can view the change requests submitted by employees by clicking on “Member>Details Change Request”
# Employer can view the online requests received from employees and can thus take appropriate action by giving the proper remark.
# After approval of the request, employer can see the latest status of the request.
# After approval of the request by the employer, the request will appear as a task in login of Dealing Hand, of concerned EPFO office, in the Field Office Interface of Unified Portal.
# Dealing Hand can login and view the online change requests by clicking “Member>Details Change Request”.
# After due verification Dealing Hand can submit his/her recommendations to Section Supervisor.
# The Dealing Assistant can put the case either for Approval or Rejection by selecting the appropriate radio button i.e. Recommended for Approval or Recommended for Rejection with proper remarks. In the same manner, Section Supervisor can submit his/her recommendations to APFC/RPFC.
# Finally APFC/RPFC can Approve/Reject the case.
Note:-Do remember that EPFO not set any deadline for this. Even though it is completely an online process, your employer approval is a MUST. Also, the update is allowed only as per Aadhaar details. Hence, before jumping into EPF UAN name, gender and date of birth correction online, first try to correct for any mismatch in Aadhaar.
Once the Aadhaar details are perfect, then go ahead for UAN correction. Otherwise, your request may be rejected upfront.
Dear Sir,
My previous employer had made mistake in my name and gender, i haven’t activate my UAN,
i am following them through mail for past four months but no proper response from them, is there any option to see whether they submitted documents to EPFO?.
kindly provide guidance please….
Dear Senthil,
Why not correct it through the current employer?

Dear Rajib
If the difference is 1 year or more as per the latest modification if it ask for attachment you have to create pdf file of less than 3mb. Only birth proof School passing cert or passport has to be given.
So if it gets rejected do what is above.

In my EPF protol the Name is E Bhaskar as per UID i want to update pan card as well in EPF protol for updating the same i want to change UID name as per pan card and i want to change the name in EPF protol as well by asking with Employer?
2. Question: please let me know if for Example amount is 99000 without updating pan card and uid exists with 3 years experinace how much tax will be deducted .
Dear Bhaskar,
Update the name as per your desired format. Regarding TDS, do you feel avoiding TDS means avoiding TAX?
Hi sir pan card is mandatory only for 19c or it is mandatory for both 19c and pension also please confirm
Dear Bhaskar,
For both.
In Epf office they can change the name as per pan card or aadhar card in my EPF protol of my login ?
Pan CARD BHASKAR ERUPURI
UID: Bhaskar Erupuri
Can i change providing same documents in epf office or please provide mail address so that i can mail to them by attching same.
Regards
Bhaskar E
Dear Bhaskar,
Regional EPFO will not change. But they process your request for the next steps.
Employer can change the same?
Dear Bhaskar,
Employer can’t but once they forward to EPFO, then EPFO will process the same.
Dear Bhaskar
Since you want name in all places to be as per pan .
Step 1 correct Aadhar card at the Aadhar centre.
Step 2 if your old Aadhar is verified on pf portal you will have to submit joint declaration to correct your name and Aadhar in pf portal. If Aadhar not verified then you can log in and under basic you can correct the same.

Aadhar and system are the same you can withdraw money after 2 months and assuming amount <50000 pan card does not count.
Note pan should be corrected as per Aadhar and should be linked on income tax site.

Hello Sir,
As per your advice in this blog, I was able to change my name in my EPF account and previous company passbook. But a later company still used my old name and now eventhough my UAN account name is corrected, this company’s passbook displays the wrong name. How to only correct the name in this company’s pass book. Please can you help..
Thanks,
Deepa
Dear Deepa,
You have to approach the company for the same. It is an error with them but not with EPFO.

Hi Sir,
I applied for online epf withdrawal on sep-16-2018, Still its showing under process. I liked with Aadhar card but i couldn’t link my PAN due to name mismatch.
Is PAN card is mandatory for withdrawal or Aadhar is enough.
Thanks in Advance
Gokul
Dear Gokul,
Yes, linking PAN is mandatory. Regarding withdrawal status, you have to wait.
Hi sir
This is Nagendra P.S
I have linked my UAN and Aaadhar with the name as mentioned above.
My PAN also has the same name.
The problem now is PAN is not getting linked in UAN as my name in Income tax website is different ,I mean my initials are expanded in income tax website.
So please let me know the next steps to be taken.
1 .Change in PAN with full name expansion?
2. Change in Aadhar with full name expansion?
3. Change in UAN with full name expansion?
Dear Nagendra,
Change the name where you feel it is wrongly updated.
Hi Sir,
I also similar problem. In case I change in UAN is that I should also change in Aadhar with full expansion.

NO.

Dear Rahul,

Hi, I left the job 3 years back, I joined another company and I happened to realize that I now have two EPF accounts. Now my Aadhar is linked with new PF account and I am unable to update the same details on old PF account. On top of that, my date of birth on the old PF account is incorrect and when I request for changes, the field office is rejecting the application by reasoning “R”. I am really confused on how to recover my old PF amount. Do you know the process on this matter?
Dear Joe,

Dear Michel,
If your employer not co-operating, then you have to visit personally to EPFO and try to correct it by submitting the relevant documents.
Dear Sir,
My name was incorrect, means my employer added last name and then first name. i have modified the basic details and my employer has also approved from their end. Now its pending to approve from EPF field office.

if they approve, how much time will it take to withdrawal the PF amount ?

“The details provided by you are not matching with your aadhaar details. ”
Since my aadhaar has correct name.Its been 1 month i had updated the my details but till i dint got any approval,can you please help me out from this.Thanks in advance.
Dear Chetankanth,
You have to wait for their approval.
I WANT ADVANCE WHEN I CLICK ADDHAR OTP THAN SHOW THIS ERROR WHAT I DO
Error: Invalid key info in digital signature (this means that certificate used for signing the authentication request is not valid – it is either expired, or does not belong to the AUA or is not created by a well-known Certification Authority).
Dear Sandeep,
I think it is procedural error and hence better to contact your employer.
This error comes when UIDAI site rejects the authentication request for OTP based aadhaar authentication. It is most likely because the digital certificate used by EPFO to sign the aadhaar authenticatuion request has expired. Wait for EPFO to renew the certificate (which may take an unknown amount of time).
So no need to contact the employer!!?? right?
Hello Sir,
My name on UAN and Aadhaar is different. I am trying to update the name UAN portal, as mentioned in your post. But getting the below error.

Whether you are asking me that modification is possible in PAN card or you are saying?
Sir
I can apply for modify name in UAN. After doing the name correction in aadhar as pancard.
Dear Arunkumar,
YES.
Sir
Already aadhar & uan linked same Name – Arunkumar S.we can modify name as pancard Arunkumar no issue.
Dear Arunkumar,
Try your luck.
Sir,
My online PF claim application got rejected because of PAN card did not able to update as My name is mismatching with Income tax pan records and UAN / EPFO. Name in Pan card and with the records of employer is same as Mahesh Kumar P N. Is it possible to change my name in UAN records? If it possible Kindly suggest in which name I have to update with UAN as I guess the name has to be changed as per income tax website. And please clarify will there be any issue if it is not similar to name printed on Adhar Card. I want to apply the same though online.
Dear Mahesh,
Make sure to retain same name in all documents. Which one to modify is left with you.
Sir,
The main problem is in my all documents including my pan card, my name printed same as Mahesh Kumar P N. There isn’t any deviation. But in Pan site it is Mahesh Kumar Peechedath Narayanan(expansion Included). The UTI technology office informed me that the name can’t change as Mahesh Kumar P N because Income tax pan site records name only with Father name ( Narayanan). That means Mahesh Kumar P N is not possible to update with income tax pan details. Kindly suggest any chance to do this.
Dear Mahesh,
In that case, changing as per your desire can be done in UAN either following above procedure or through your employer.
Hi Basavaraj,
I had two employers A and B respectively. I had applied for physical PF withdrawal through B but the documents got rejected stating ‘Profile Incomplete’ even though everything was filled. I then tried online withdrawal. Employer A updated everything and aadhar, pan, bank account verified. Then I applied for withdrawal online, this time it says details not filled as employer B hasn’t updated joining date, leaving date etc. Employer A says, Employer B needs to merge the PF account balance, only then I can withdraw online (P.S. I have only one PF account registered with both the employers). Employer B suggests sending physical documents again. Please advice what should be the right course of action.
Dear Sangjukta,
I think the issue is with joining and exit dates. Please check with your employer for the same. If no solution, then raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Hi Basavaraj,
Thank you for your replies. Both my employers (1 and 2 ) have updated everything on the epfo portal and I can withdraw EPF now, but only of employer 2. In the claim tab, I can see claim for only my 2nd employer. I contacted 1st employer, they said I will need to transfer my 1st employer PF amount into 2nd employer’s PF account. For that I have to select transfer request on the online services tab. (P.S. I have only one UAN number registered with both of them). In the transfer request tab, I can only see details of my second employer with an error message “Present employer has not made payment in your PF account.”. Please guide on how to transfer my 1st employer’s PF amount into second employer’s PF account and then withdraw both together.
Dear Sangjukta,
If the issue is with second employer contribution not showing, then why not contact them and resolve the issue at first?

Kanchan-Refer above post.
My former employer had approved my digital KYC like PAN and Bank Account details however it doesn’t show online in my profile for some reason I don’t know. I raised a grievance on this, the PF dept suggested me to add the KYC again, the moment I did, it is now showing under my new employer pending approval list so the former employer cant do anything now. So, if my new employer approves this, will these be updated automatically or I need to raise the grievance again? Also, what is the transfer process? Is it get transferred automatically or I need to submit an application? My new employer is yet to deposit the PF money, so the former passbook is fine but the new one shows blank still.
Sandeep-So, if my new employer approves this, will these be updated automatically or I need to raise the grievance again?-NOT REQUIRED. Yes, you have to apply for transfer.

Hi,
I have two UAN numbers as in my previous PF account number DOB is wrong.
I understand by your blogs that 1st i need to correct DOB and then need to request for transferring the previous account.
I requested for DOB change thru online on 15th Mar 2018 and the employer approved immediately, since the DOB is difference in aadhar is more than one year, I received a notification from EPFO mentioning I need to submit attested documents within 15 days. As per the instruction I sent self attested documents to EPFO, but they have rejected the my request even before documents could reach. I called the concerned officer. She says I need to submit the supporting documents on the same day and these documents should be attested by the previous employer.
If i need to get documents attested from previous employer to change DOB thru process offline, then why cant I simply fill joint declaration form and send to previous employer with self attested documents to process offline.
Please suggest me which process is simpler.
Also let me know about attesting documents for both online and offline process.
Thanks.
Suraj-A joint declaration by your previous employer to change date of birth is easier.

It’s a complicated issue but please bare with me.
The main issue is I want the name in my UAN to be changed to just the first name. I cant do it online as my KYC is already verified. But after the KYC verification process i have changed my name recently in my Aadhar card From Kashish Lubana to just Kashish as all my certificates including my Pan Card have just the first name. So What is the process to change the name in the UAN portal to just Kashish instead of kashish lubana.
Kashish-Do the same through your employer.
I have a UAN number but it was not activated because of date of birth doesn’t match with UAN.

Yes, I checked, it’s under digitally approved KYC; however, when I opt for online transfer it says please update your bank account details :), don’t know why though! Raised this issue with EPFO twice, they couldn’t figure it how its happening. I think I have to go for manual claim submission.
Hard Luck! May be some portal issue. I think they got instructions not to take any claim settlements offline!
Sandeep-In that case, apply for offline claim submission.
My UAN is linked to Aadhar, it shows KYC is done. However, PAN no and Bank Account is yet to be linked. Though my employer has approved PAN and Bank Account digitally. Then, why it shows that KYC is done? Can I go for manual claim submission process of withdrawal since PAN and Bank Account is not linked?
SANDEEP:- Check your KYC page in UAN account. PAN and Bank account details should fall under Approved KYC. If it is approved you can avail online services. If it is not approved you can not avail online services. Manual claim submission can not be done if you are currently employed.
Hello can we changed our date of birth as per adhar card
As in pf it’s already wrong update
If possible then what is the process
Suraj-Yes, by following above process you can change it.
I have a slightly unique issue. Could you help with on what I need to do to get this sorted?
I am a female.
My PAN card, which I had applied for before my wedding, states my father’s name.
My Aadhar card, which I got after marriage mentions my husband’s name.
My Aadhar card has been digitally verified on UIDAI portal, it states so on the UAN. No issues with that.
1. Under the Member details page of the Unified Member portal, point (4) Father’s/ Husband’s name, it mentions my husband’s name but in the very next column, it states the Relation as ‘Father’.
Since Adhaar has been verified, the portal is not allowing me to make any changes in personal details.
2. I am not able to verify my PAN Card digitally on the UAN portal. It constantly throws an error without providing any details!
I am guessing the issue is because there is a mismatch in my ‘Father’s name’ between the UAN & PAN.
This is getting highly frustrating and I think I am going in circles here.
Please let me know how I can solve these?
Thanks!
Ananthalakshmi-First correct middle name by giving joint declaration with your employer to EPFO. Then you can do the rest of the things.
For PAN & Aadhaar verification UAN portal only checks your name and there is nothing to do with Father/Husband’s name.
Check your PAN card name and UAN portal name if it is matched then portal should allow you to update. To check your name in PAN card; Check the same on Income tax website because the name registered in their database can be different then what is printed on PAN card.
Thanks Pavan and Basavaraj-
I checked my name on the PAN Card from the IT website. It matches exactly with the UAN.
One additional question:- Can I simply approach the IT office in person and submit the new ‘Form 19_Composite claim form’? I have been unemployed for over 2 years now.
Ananthalakshmi-You have to submit a withdrawal form to EPFO not to IT Dept.
Yes, of course, the EPFO office. Typo!
Thanks again

Then with my previous employer I have submitted a joint declaration for changing basic details. Now I can edit my details in ” Manage>Modify Basic Details “. But when I say update Still I am still getting an error saying “AADHAAR is already verified in unified portal. Your details is not editable”

Hi Sir,
I have 2 UANs and both are currently active because the PF transfer from first UAN to 2nd is not done yet. I am facing issue to transfer the PF balance from 1st UAN due to mismatch in NAME and DOB. Initially I tried to update it online but got the message to send proof for DOB correction. I sent 10th certificate but then again it got rejected saying huge difference in DOB and asked me to submit Joint Declaration form and other supporting documents.
I contacted my previous employer and they agreed to help in this regard. But after submitting all documents, the previous employer is saying they are not able to update it because I had already left the job and UAN is deactivated and asking me to get it done from present employer. They are also saying that PF department has stopped accepting the hard copies. In that case I don’t understand why they asked me to submit joint declaration form and other documents in hard copy?.
I have checked and found that UAN is still active. Now I am not sure whether the present employer will be able to help to update the details in previous UAN because the UAN currently associated with present employer is different. Could you please guide how to get this resolved.
Girish-You have to request to EPFO through your current employer for the merger of both UAN.
Thanks for the reply.
But as I have mentioned in my query, there is some correction needed for the details related to old UAN which was created by former employer. Is it possible to get those corrections done from Present employer?
Regards,
Girish
Girish-I think that is not possible from the current employer.
Thanks for your kind reply but your Employee means I didn’t get you… Will you plz elaborate…
Pinku-What more I elaborate?
Girish:- Once you have marked as Ex employee, Employer can’t edit your details. Since both UAN are different current employer can not help you in this regards. Raise EPFO Grievance online stating your concern and upload all related documents. You can try your luck this way!
Hello Sir,
My UAN and Adhaar has the name Chai Nallur but in the Pan card its reversed, it shows as Nallur Chai but in my pan card display name is chai N. I am not able to verify pan card in EPFO. Please suggest

To avail Online services of UAN, Your PAN and Aadhaar needs to be digitally verified. Taking it offline won’t help in getting Online services of UAN.

Now new company PF team is saying they are unable to link new PF account number due to your Father’s name is not updated in the RPFC.

Hi Sir,
My name is Vinodh kannan G
My PF & AADHAR got verified successfully and now i need to update PAN.
While updating only i found my name on IT shows “GOBI VINODHKANNAN”.
(I came to know now only that we can’t use “Initial/single letter” on Front/Back of our name on IT/PAN).
So, Pls help me to proceed further.
Is any possibility of changing name online on PF after changing my AADHAR again???
Pls advise.
Vinodh-Whether the error is in Aadhaar, PAN or EPF?
Thanks for your response.
Actual error is in PAN.
Bcoz they created my PAN as “gobi vinodhkannan” here gobi is my father’s name.
Now PAN dept says you cant use Only 1 letter on front or back of my name.
So, if this is the case now i need to change both my PF & AADHAR.
I need to know is there any possibility of changing name after aadhar linked on PF.
Vinodh-Then first change in Aadhaar and then update the same in EPF.
For that how can i do it online? Bcoz already my PF is aadhar verified!?
Now do i need to req. For name change manually??? Or can i apply for name change online.
If yes, pls explain the procedure.
Thanks
Vinodh-In my view, better to use it offline mode.
Vinodh : If your Aadhar name and UAN name is not matched also Modify Basic details page says that details aren’t editable then wait for the portal update. Your details will be updated automatically.
Hello,
Need assistance ..
PF account is linked to Aadhar card, but there is change in the name that needs to be done but system does not allow me to do so as it liked. Failing to understand that my name on Aadhar shows as Anitha Rakesh Nath which is the correct name but PF account shows name as Anitha Pillai which was before marriage.
Please advice if there is a option of changing the name as per Aadhar online.
Rgds
Anitha
Anitha-If you are unable to correct it online, then do the same through your employer.
Thank you …
but will the current employer do it or the previous one.
Rgds
Anitha
Current employer can help you on these. While modifying details online it gives option of Select employer on “MODIFY BASIC DETAILS” under Manage Tab, choose there and intimate your current employer regarding this. They will approve the status from their end.
Dear Sir,
For changing my date of birth . My employer approved the request. Last one month it’s pending with field office. Today morning I checked the status in MODIFY BASIC DETAILS. The pending request showing zero.
I am not sure that the requested is rejected or accepted. So, I need your valuable suggestions for further proceeding.
Liza-It may be some error. Check after some time.
I have applied name change request in EPFO account to link Aadhaar number.
It is approved by the employer and it is now pending approval from “Kolkatta field office”. It is pending more than 10 days.
How many days it will takefor approval?
Or whom we should contact any email id is there?
Could you lplease help. As i need to claim my PF amount for the same.
Mathankumar-You have to wait for their approval.
i modify my basic details that confirm from employer but its long pending from filed officer what can i do kindly suggest me.
Saifur-You have to wait.
Hello Sir,

Tapesh-There is no such deadline set. Hence, you have to wait.
File an RTI. Your task will usually get done before you receive your RTI reply, which is a maximum of 30 days. If you file it today, then the effective maximum will become 30 days.
Hi sir
In UAN portal my Name shows as Rahul Bedse but on Aadhar As Rahul Shankar Bedse
Also in UAN My Aadhar no. Is wrong it shows my UAN no as Aadhar no.
When I am trying to link my Aadhar with EPF and Through Umang or EPF website it shows error as Aadhar cannot be seeded due mismatch name.
I tried through UAN modify basic details but my Aadhar no is not editable and while changing name details it shows details entered should as per Aadhar.
I tried with epfo office they says it’s not possible change Aadhar no. Now.
I contacted to UAN helpdesk says send joint declaration to EPFO Office and try.
Sir how to solve this problem?
Rahul-Better to raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
When I am trying to activate my UAN .It is showing my date of birth is not matching. please help to update my date of birth..
Faraz-Refer above post. If that possible, then update the same through your employer.
Hi, thanks for publishing this very comprehensive article. I have a couple of questions that I should be grateful if you can answer. I had signed up for a PF account with my previous organisation and set up my profile on the EPFO website, etc and also withdrawn the amount last year. It has been two years since I left the organisation and moved to another so in an attempt to see how much balance I have in my PF account with the current employer I sent an SMS to the EPFO number for checking PF balance and realised I have some amount left from the previous organisation’s PF account. It shows no amount from the deposits made at the current employer. Does that mean I have a different UAN number for the current employer? How can I take the little money I have left in my old PF account? Also, I tried to update the KYC details but it says they are awaiting approval from the old employer. How do I change the employer?
Bhadra-Check with your current employer regarding the current EPF details. You can’t withdraw the earlier EPF as you are currently working. You can only transfer to current EPF.
Hi, I have requested to change my name as per Aadhar. It is approved by my Employer and pending at PUNE field office since last 3 days.
Could you please tell how many days it generally takes at field office?
Pratap-No such deadline set.
In a reply to an RTI I filed, I asked for the deadline. They said that there is no such deadline, though they said they “try” to do it in 10 days. I’d suggest that you file an RTI with the concerned office, asking for the status. It is very likely that your work will be done before you get your reply.
i raised request to change my date of birth, its showing as pending with employer. let me know who is approved for the changes ??
Syed-Inform your employer to process it at first.
Hi sir,one myname ,gender,dob,are same in aadhar,in pan,and in uan,aadhar is verified, as well as name changed in uan.but the pan is not approved,saying mismatch against the uan details,in deep her father name is krishna kuruva in pan,krishna k in uan and kuruva krishna in aadhar,suggest which document to be modified,
Kuruva-It is hard for me to say anything as it is up to you to decide.
Updated Gender details and full name, and aadhar details >> approved by office and field officer.
But now again can’t withdraw stating father details missing 🙁
Government is trying hard to stop PF withdrawal…
Navneet-Sad to hear. Better to raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Raise the same with your current employer. The detail of Father’s name can be updated by employer.
hello sir the details change request has not been shown in unifiedportal for the correction of Name, DOB & Gender. What is the procedure to change it
Ruby-It is not available now??
Hi ,
I am trying to transfer my PF amount from old PF No to new PF no through UAN Portal. bank, Aadhar & PAN already verified on portal.
Step1 says to option for Present & Past employer.
Note : Member has the option to choose claim form attestation by present or previous employer, based on availability of DSC authorized signatory.
Attestation through : *
Previous Employer Present Employer
To generate Member ID in required format, click
Member ID / UAN : *
When ever I am entering my UAN no on last field and click on Get details…..popup is opening with remarks as “No previous employment details found against this UAN.”
Please suggests for its reason and confirm how i can transfer PF online.
Rajeev-It is a procedural issue, try to contact EPFO.
Check your service history part on UAN portal. The Date of Leaving must be not available in last employment. Connect your previous employer to update the DOL. Once it is updated you will be able to raise the claim.
MY UAN is activated and linked with Aadhaar. My bank account and PAN is not yet added though I have requested already. Can I go for offline withdraw process?
Sandeep-But providing bank details and PAN details are mandatory. Hence, wait for approval.
Hi sir,
My surname was incorrect in Aadhar and the UAN is already linked with it, now when I corrected the name in Aadhar ,I’m unable to change it in UAN details.
The portal gives the option to change but when I enter the details and click on update option,
It says that Aadhar is already verified and the details are not editable.
Plz help me in changing my UAN details
Omkar-Wait for some time as I think they take the data automatically from Aadhaar and update UAN. If that does not happen, then raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
I have corrected my DOB and employer has approved.It is pending from field officer.
What is the correct procedure.
Mohd-You have to wait for field officer approval.

Sandeep-If it is transferred, then you are not allowed to withdraw.
So if I want to withdraw what should I do now? Can’t I withdraw even after 5-6 months working here? In the last organization, I worked for 6.9 years
Sandeep-Legally you are not allowed to withdraw.

Hello sir , My UAN is aadhar verified but My father name is missing (left blank) in the UAN Portal and i requested my ex-employer to update but they are not properly response and not taking any necessary action for this . so, i not able claim my pf through online. Now my question is ,
1.) Can i claim my pf money without father name through offline without employer help
2.) Is there any other way to update my father name in UAN portal
Praveen-1) As Aadhaar is already linked, I don’t think it is a big issue and you can easily claim.
2) Try to do through offline mode by visiting EPFO.
My father’s name is wrong in UAN profile as well as in UAN Card. But my aadhar is already linked. Will there be any issue while applying for online withdrawl?
Priya-As per me NO.
I have one bank account approved in the UAN portal, is it mandatory to use this bank account only in future during withdrawal or I can submit fresh bank account details. Can I submit offline request with another bank account even if my KYC is done online.
Sandeep-You can change the bank. But better to use the same bank account which you want to retain.
I have one bank account approved by my previous employer, it is showing under digitally approved KYC, but if I try to submit online claim it says please update your latest bank account details. KYC is done as Aadhaaar is updated. I recently joined another company. Can I add a new bank account online in my UAN and ask my new employer to approve the new bank account as the old bank account was a salary account of my last employer? Is it possible to have two different bank accounts in the UAN portal?
Sandeep-Better to add and retain only one account.

I have requested for change of birth of year in my profile thrice .My employer did the same for me. My YOB is specified as 1978 actual it is 1988. It is approved by employer.
I have provided my Adhar card, PAN card and 10th mark sheet as a proof of date of birth .but they are rejecting it every time saying this always Reason : REQUIRED DATE OF BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
All above proof has DOB clearly written.
What should I do ?

Daita-As of now, there is no clarity in this regard. But you can try.
My employer has approved my Bank details like Account number and IFSC and PAN which are showing under digitally approved KYC however whenever I try to claim online it says please update your bank records through unified portal/ Employer. I checked with my employer they say they already did this. I raised online grievance also but no help. Please suggest! Aadhar has been linked already.

Hi,
Tried to reset my password where i followed these below steps.
1.Entered my UAN and selected ‘forgot password’
2.Its was asking me whether to send OTP to my mobile # which i am not using now. so i selected ‘NO’.
3. After that I entered my UAN name ‘YUVARAJ L’, DOB and GENDER.
4. Then I gave my PAN# and i was getting MISMATCH error since my name in PAN is ‘YUVARAJ’ (No initial).
name in my AADHAR is ‘Yuvaraj Loganathan’
Can you please advise me is there is any way that i could login to my UAN.
Yuvraj-It is a procedural error. Better to connect with EPFO.
My UAN is already Aadhaar verified. . . .
I have problem mismatch in name in PAN and ITD , so I have applied for name correction in PAN.
i want to update the same in UAN portal since my aadhar is already verified i am not able to edit feild, so what is the procedure for correcting my name in EPFO ?
I have expanded my name in aadhar will that be reflected automatically in EPFO portal?
Venkatesh-Your Aadhaar details will reflect in EPFO. If linking is not possible online, then better to visit concerned EPFO and try to link.
Thanks for replying Basavaraj,
since my PAN had expanded version (VENKATESH GURRAM MUNIRATHNAM) of my name so i hd problem in linking with ITD so i expanded my name in Aadhar and did correction in PAN Details. now my AAdhar is already linked in UAN portal with my short version of my name (VENKATESH G M). i want to update the name as per aadhar now.
is that any change or update in UIDAI portal will automatically reflected in EPFO ?
and do i need employer approval later ?
Thank you,
Venkatesh-I think so.
sir have given the request to change my name the request is in pending status so how long will it take to change the name

Hi My name is Pandiarajan. My name was wrongly entered in EPFO. it shows A. PONDIYARAJAN\. Now, i have resigned the job and joined HCL. The HCL employer created new UAN no(may be the name is spell error so they created new UAN without my knowledge). i am unable to change my name in EPFO itself in old UAN. The error shows “AADHAAR is already verified in unified portal. Your details is not editable.” what are steps to change the name and transfer the amount to new UAN no. kindly guide me. please send detailed mail to my id pandian_su@yahoo.com. Now i have two UAN no. thanks is advance.
Pandirajan-You have to request EPFO through your current employer for the merger of both UAN. Once it is done then you can transfer it. In the meantime, I suggest you to raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Thanks for quick response. i will contact EPFO grievance cell online.
Dear Sir,
On Aadhaar and PAN card my name is SURESH MUTHIAH.In UAN portal my name is SURESH M. Eventhough my UAN card is verified with Aadhaar but failed on PAN verification.When i tried to change the name it is showing Details are not editable as UAN is already verified with Aadhaar. Please provide the forward path

I am facing mismatch issue while trying to update PAN in UAN portal. My name is printed with initials on PAN card but the IT department has captured the expansion of these initials in their records. My Aadhar and all other documents except passport has my name with initials. I was able to link PAN with Aadhar as well. I prefer not to change my name in the Aadhar and UAN. Is there a solution for this?
Jilse-Visit the regional EPFO and try to link.

Rohit-Approach your employer.
My name is Mridul Ranjan, which is correct in my PAN Card & Adhaar Card. But my UAN profile had the name in reverse (Ranjan Mridul).
I requested my employer to fix it, they approved it. Then the EPFO Office also approved it. So when I click on the Modify Basic Details option, it shows at the bottom “Approved by employer, EPFO Office – approved OK”
BUT, the changes are actually not done! My UAN Profile still shows the wrong name everywhere on every page. Due to the name mismatch, my PAN Card verification is failing. And further due to this one single issue, I can’t submit my PF Claim or even verify my Bank
I tried all options, registered grievance online, emailed top executives for EPFO, BUT NO LUCK!
What is my next option?
Mridul-They update the portal lately. Hence, better you have to wait for few more days.
I Had same issue. Finally solved after 75 days of waiting.
Hi,

I got a call from UAN team, they have asked me to drop the mail @ cpfc@epfindia.gov.in I have explained them the issue in mail tow days back. Still Didn’t got any response. May be you can also try sending the mail. Number of mails can wake them up and they might resolve the bug.

Rahul-It may be due to delayed update from EPFO portal. Hence, better you have to wait or raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
I am trying to update my name at EPFO portal per aadhar ,same was approved by my employer & from field office too, but it was not getting reflectig to my EPFO portal due to which I am not able to Verify my PAN no saying name mismatch. I have also logged call to EPFO Grievance Cell Online their reply is

Further if unable to verify the PAN, please submit physical composite claim along with cancelled cheque leaf, PAN card copy and Form-15G while applying for settlement.
But still incorrect name appearing on UAN portal and while downloading UAN card…please sugest its already 10 days passed

Yes Aadhar & bank details apporved….but PAN no is not getting updated due to name mismatch
Got my name corrected today! Mostly the issue has been rectified and the change should reflect for all users.
Rajeev-This shows that they update portal no on real-time basis or regular basis. Knock EPFO if you feel it is delaying.
Hi,
I updated my basic details (name and Aadhar) through UAN portal. My employer approved it. Now I received SMS from EPFO that it is rejected by EPFO field office. Reason: Submit MRC. What is MRC?
Anagha-Me too not sure of it. Better interact with concerned EPFO.
I updated my basic details (name and Aadhar) through UAN portal. My employer approved it. Now I received SMS from EPFO that it is rejected by EPFO field office. Reason: OK. What is OK?
Sanjay-Hard to say anything about such message and hard to believe also!
Same message and reason: OK , i got from EPFO.. Just couldnt understand…
I think MRC stands for Marriage Registration Certificate. If you have got married and changed your name in Aadhar & then tried to update the same on UAN then some PF offices ask for this certificate. Better to approach your employer and submit joint declaration.
Pavan-Thanks for clarifying the doubt.
my current office employer has accepted date of birth change request in past week however it still pending at epfo site how much time will it take more.
Sulekha-You have to wait.
Hi, I had requested for the correction in DOB as per my Aadhar, the request has been approved by the employer but it stays pending by the EPF Tambaram office for more than 3 weeks.

Aadhaar is already Linked to PAN.
But During PAN linkage, the linking is failing due to Name mismatch problem.
Is there any way to get the linkage done without changing the name in Aaadhaar/UAN? (Similar to the option provided during PAN-Aadhaar linkage where in person could like PAN to aadhaar even where there was mismatch occuring due to Initial/Expanded Initial problems), Is there a similar option for PAN-UAN Linkage?
Thanking you in advance.
Dear Sir,
I am unable to link the PAN to the UAN due to the following issue.
a) In PAN, the initials are in expanded form
b) In Aadhaar and in UAN , the Name is provided as initials and NOT in expanded form.
In All documents (Financial/Educational etc) Have been using the Initials Format only till date.
Aadhaar is already Linked to PAN.
But During PAN linkage, the linking is failing due to Name mismatch problem.
Is there any way to get the linkage done without changing the name in Aaadhaar/UAN? (Similar to the option provided during PAN-Aadhaar linkage where in person could like PAN to aadhaar even where there was mismatch occuring due to Initial/Expanded Initial problems), Is there a similar option for PAN-UAN Linkage?
Thanking you in advance.

So what can I do.

Thank you Sir.

Shayari-You tried this online option?
In the online option I see the same screen as that mentioned in step 4 of your article above
hayari-But as per you there are still mismatch right? If so, then no option but to knock EPFO using EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
I have tried that thrice till now. Everytime they say please do it again but the gender is still not getting corrected.
Shayari-Visit the concerned EPFO and do it ( a final option).

(Name and DOB is correctly updated in AADHAR card) Can you please help me with the documents which are required for DOB and name change also is it possible to do online? If no then what is the procedure?
Supriya-Better to do the same through your employer.
My employer has already approved it. It got rejected by field officer.
Supriya-I am not sure what prompted them to reject when you applied for correction as per Aadhaar details. Better to raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.

My father’s name and my gender are not correct on EPFO.
While requesting for update , it’s giving error “Aadhaar is already verified. Your details aren’t editable.”.
so what i can do now.
please suggest.
Thanks,
Sushil
Sushil-Whether the father name and gender details are as per Aadhaar?
No. EPFO and Aadhar details are different (gender and father name).
On Aadhaar all the information including gender and father name are correct.
Sushil-Then request EPFO through your employer for correction as per Aadhaar.
Thank you Basavaraj.
Hi Basavaraj,
My name is Suraj, We chatted few months back on another topic. Hope you remember. Now, I want to withdraw my PF amount as I am not working since last 1 year. My Aadhar details are updated but I couldn’t update my PAN Card details as there is a name mismatch. I know the procedure to get it updated but my previous employer gives me runaround whenever I have a request on PF. Hence, I have decided to withdraw PF but it says TDS will be deducted at a marginal rate of 34%. My question is, as am not working would it be possible to claim those TDS deducted when I file my IT returns next year because mostly it’s going to be a NIL return foe next FY(as there is no income this FY).
BR
Suraj
Suraj-Yes, you can reclaim the TDS by filing IT return and the tax then will be applicable as per your income tax slab.
Thank you Basavaraj. Cheers !

hello Sir
i have requested for name change and it is approved by field office but even after its not reflecting in my profile.
Shubham-Sadly they update the data lately. Hence, you have to wait.
Have noticed that few people got name corrected immediately after approval from field office and few people are facing the same issue.
I think the issue is with one who has Aadhar already approved as KYC and then they are making some changes in Aadhar as well as UAN.
Pavan-We can’t generalize but surely there are some issues.
Hello Sir,
I too have updated my name and aadhar number through modify basic details just now, but I do not see any message as “pending from employer” or anything similar. The pending columns are just blank with no message. Kindly help what can be done. My first employer had sent joint declaration 2 months ago, but nothing updated. My second employer had sent Form 19 for PF withdrawal and it came back as ‘Member profile incomplete’. Kindly guide.
Thank you so much in advance !

Dear sir ,
My DOB is incorrect in my EPF account as well as UAN account . And somehow the adhaar number is linked with my UAN account is incorrect . I am trying to change my detail and my adhaar number but the option of changing adhaar number is already filled with the same incorrect adhaar number . Also the adhaar number is unverified so why I am unable to change my adhaar number and my DOB .
Please help me with this.
Thanks
Ravinder-I am not sure on which basis your UAN was linked to the wrong Aadhaar. Better you knock EPFO immediately.
Hi sir,
My Date of birth is wrong in pf details.. nd I requst online also..Bt still it is pending since 2nd November 2017 … what should I do ..nd how many time it will take to change my DOB ?
Monika-Knock your employer for the same at first level.
I have got my name changed yesterday through this ‘modify details’ process. Looks like field approval is done within 30 days at least. I once logged my grievance in about the long wait..online, thats probably why they did it fast. Thats all i did and i just waited. Now all burdens gone.
I am not able to add my Aadhar details in the KYC as my DOB is wrongly mentioned in the EPF site. With the above post, I have made correction to my DOB as per Aadhar records by first entering the Aadhar number. The status is “Pending at Employer”. Should I take any other step from my side for linking Aadhar to my PF account as the deadline ( Dec 31, 2017) is nearing ? Kindly guide me with the procedure.
Krishna-Better you inform your employer for the speedy approval.

Thank you.

Pushpalal-By following above post.
If my employer is not helping me as he is not entering my aadhaar details in the epfo is there any other way to upload I have tried all the ways I did for my colleagues it is getting updated but mine is not updating please help.
Jagannath-Visit the concerned EPFO and link offline.
Dear sir,
Thanks for sharing this useful information. I generated my UAN no. After login to UAN my Adhaar already linked to my EPF and UAN. But name on UAN is different than Adhaar card so I requested to my employer to update my name as per Adhaar card. Recently they again generated new UAN no. Without having password. Also they are saying they can not correct my name. Also in UAN login I sent online request to correct my name it shows pending from employer.
Asmit-They can request for name correction to EPFO. You no need to use one more UAN, it will create a headache for you. Better you raise an issue immediately with EPFO Grievance Cell.
Hello sir,
I’ve placed 20 nos. employee’s basic details corrections so far. All the time of seeding correct details and approved through employer portal status shows as pending at field officer. But from last two days at the time of seeding correct date as per aadhaar card, a message appears in member’s portal. It says that either a) Educational certificate, b) Certificate issued bu registrar (Birth), c) Passport should be submitted at the E.P.F.O. office with the reference No. Now my question is that if it is a online process and changes would be on aadhaar basis, then why should someone submit aforesaid documents separately ? If someone do not have those documents in hand then whether their details will change in E.P.F.O. UAN portal?
Tarak-I am not sure about this as it is at employer end. Hence, better you be in touch with EPFO.
I’ll. Thank you sir.
Is there any option to register nominee in E.P.F.O. online? Because neither I had found it at the time of new registration or in member portal. I can remember this facility was available in UAN member service old version.
Tarak-Sadly KNOW.

Elsy-Your past employer verifies and update. If that not happen, then visit the concerned EPFO and link using the offline method.
How many days does it take usually to get it updated?
Elsy-Sadly no deadline set it for this.
Sir,
I have sent a request to my previous employer for a change in name through the UAN member portal following the steps suggested by you. My previous employer states that they are yet to obtain a digital signature to the needful at their end. It appears there will be a delay. Can i delete the request to the old employer and make the same with the present employer. Kindly inform the step by step procedure for the same.
Prasad-You can do so (But as per me, the request will go to your current employer not to old employer).
Hi,
I have submitted name and gender correction request using above options and present status is Pending at employer
. Do I need to contact my employer personally to approve it as I am currently not working.
Rahul-Not required.
So how will they come to know that such request is pending for them to approve it? Whether they get any notification for such request?
Rahul-I think EPFO will send auto mailer (not sure). But as per me, you no need to do any action.
Sir,
Also my wife UAN have some issues and need you guidance. Her name on Aadhar card is PUNAM PAWAR but on PAN its POONAM PAWAR. Hence my KYC details on EPFO site are displayed as Unverified. Do I need to correct name on Adhar card to synch with PAN? I have already submitted modify basic detail request and its in Pending at field officer status with name PUNAM PAWAR. If its approved can I raise another request to change name to POONAM PAWAR after correcting name on Adhar card?
Rahul-Yes, you can request one more time.
Hello Sir,
I have submitted my name correction on EPFO site is its successfully changed now as per Aadhar name. Now I want to make some initial name correction in my Aadhar.But now when I click Modify basic details option on EPFO site its showing “Aadhaar is already verified. Your details aren’t editable.” error. Can I make changes to my Aadhar and again submit request to correction on EPFO site?
Rahul-Yes, you can change now only when you change details in Aadhaar.
best is Contact your employer, Becoz they does not receive any notice or mail about your request and it is new feature some of them have no idea about it.
In employer login page, there is a new option for Approve or reject your request.
I also knew these feature through this Site.
Hi,
I just need to add my middle name but when I try attempting details via “Modify Basic Details”, it gives an error saying “Unexpected error occured. Please try after some time.”

Thanks.
Regards,
Rahul
Rahul-You better to try after some time. Regarding LIC surrender, refer my post “How to Surrender LIC Policy after 3 years or before maturity?“.
Hi ,.
I want to update my name as per my aadhara card but I am confused whether I have to send my request to my previous employer or present employer. However today I have updated my details with the present employer is this ok. plz let me know asap.
Kiran-If your both EPF accounts are under single UAN, then updating data with UAN is sufficient.
Yeah both EPF accounts are under same UAN.
Thank you so much for your reply.
My AADHAR already verified in my EPFO Account 1 year before.Now I joined new company>my Employer can’t able to add new PF account in my UAN due to name mismatch with AADHAR and UAN.
How can I update my name in UAN if AADHAR verified.Kindly Suggest.
Gopika-Whether Aadhaar and UAN name matching?
In AADHAR my Name is : GOPIKA S but in UAN Account Gopika.S.The space and dot between name and initial is the problem for Mismatching.I want to update in UAN only.Because my otherproof ‘s (PAN.,) also GOPIKA S .
Gopika-If this online procedure is not helping you, then you can update the same through your employer.
Thanks for the reply.

Hello Basunivesh Ji,
One of our employee place a request for transfer his earlier PF balance to his new PF A/c. But at UAN portal whenever I went to file transfer claim the message “SOMETHING WENT WRONG, PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER”. Even if the employee went to PF office they deny to accept the transfer claim request and thus the problem stand still. Please suggest me what to do.
Regards,
Tarak Mondal
Tarak-It is a technical glitch. Hence, better to be in touch with EPFO.
Thank you.

Hi Basavaraj – My father’s name is not updated by employer on UAN portal, can employer do it from their end ? or just by linking Aadhaar can I go for withdrawal ?
Rohith-You have to link Aadhaar with EPF then try for withdrawal.
Thanks for the reply
I am also getting the message “Aadhaar verfification service is not working now.Please try again later to view this.”….How to resolve? Are others also getting the similar message?
PraveenK-Even you can download eAadhaar since two days. Hence, better to wait and try after some days.
Even i am getting this error from past 2-3 days. Whenever i try to update the basic details.
“Aadhaar verfification service is not working now.Please try again later to view this.”
Hussain-Better to use offline method to link.
I am activation the UAN No. But UAN No. is correct My details were wrong how to correct the my detals
Santosh-Check Aadhaar details. Because EPFO fetches data from Aadhaar.
Hi Sir,
As employer, when i try to approved my employee request where giving remark “EmployeeName”. I am getting error likeas

Hi,
My previous employer entered wrong date of exit and they are not able to edit it. Can you let me know how can this be corrected?
Dharmin-No idea about correcting employer roles. Let them be in touch with EPFO.
Getting Error “Aadhaar verfification service is not working now.Please try again later to view this.”
Sivakumar-May be data fetching issue. Try after sometime.
I’ve tried the same to change my name, looks like the emloyer has accepted my request, but still pending in the Office of PF Gurgaon, it has been 3 days since pending showed up. Just wondering for how long it takes to approve everything? Please help if you know pliz.
Max-They have not set any deadline.
How long does it take, generally? My request ia also pending.
Govind-They have not set any deadline.
That’s okay but in case if it is not getting approved for more than 10 days? What one can do. I mean should I visit nearest EPFO office?
Govind-Raise an issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Hi, firstly I tried several times to link my Aadhaar to my UAN but it failed every time with the message that read “invalid gender details for aadhaar authentication”. So I assumed its the issue with my gender details as in my gender column in the UAN it says NA. Now following your procedure to update gender, every time I get this message “Aadhaar verification service is not working right now. Please try after some time”. Without Aadhar updation, I am unable to withdraw my PF, which I am I desperate need for medical purposes. Can you please help me out with Aadhar and Gender updation? Your help will be highly appreciated!
Sameep-There may be some issues in fetching data from UIDAI. Try after some time.
Hi Basavaraj
I have changed my name as per aadhar and the same is approved by my employer now it’s showing “Pending with field office”.
What is the time period required for approval from field office and is there any procedure which need to followup ?
Giriprasad-No time horizon set up. But it will be within a month or so.
I have got my name changed yesterday through this ‘modify details’ process. Looks like field approval is done within 30 days at least.
Max-Thanks for your sharing.
I have been trying to verify since yesterday, but I get the same error –
“Aadhaar authentication failed. AADHAAR number, Name, DOB or Gender mismatch with registered data”
Patel-Check the data mismatch. First correct that and then try to update.
Hi Sir,
As given instructions above regarding changing of basic details i updated the mentioned steps properly now in the portal also i am able to see “Pending at employer”. So can you please let me know how much duration it will take to complete this approval process after i get approval from Employer..
Is there any other way i can update my details. Please guide me with the process to withdraw Pf amount. Currently i am not employeed.
Thanks for your great help again.
Regards
Pooja
Pooja-There is no such timeline set. However, if update not processed within 15 days, then raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online. Once your UAN is KYC verified, then you can apply for withdrawal online (Refer How to withdraw EPF and EPS online? )
Hi ,
For Employer approval ( Employer login- Member -Detail change request) option is not available on the employer site, What we need to do for enabling this option.
Prasanth-Approach EPFO.
This Option is Available on 29-11-2017 . I am Approved one employee detail
Valeed-Great to know this 🙂
i have request to modify some details through online using this option, is this request show automatically to employer or i need to intimate???
Mohanraja-You no need to intimate to employer.
Thank you
Hi,
The name in my UAN consists of first name and last name. However, the name in Aadhar consists of first name, middle name and last name. Now, I am not able to verify Aadhar citing some authentication error, probably due to the name.
Also, my new pf account from my new organization is now linked to this UAN. So if I update my name in UAN portal as per Aadhar, will it affect the process of pf transfer? Since my previous pf would be having my name as first name and last name only?
Please revert.
Thanks.
Dharmin-Sometimes the error occurs due to UIDAI portal technical error. Hence, try after some time (If the details in Aadhaar are correct). I think once you update UAN details as per Aadhaar, then it will automatically reflect to EPF accounts which are there in UAN.
Hi,
Thanks for your response.
I have been trying to verify since yesterday, but I get the same error –
“Aadhaar authentication failed. AADHAAR number, Name, DOB or Gender mismatch with registered data”
So, I suppose updating my name in UAN as per Aadhaar would rectify this issue right?
Dharmin-YES.
Hi,
Do you know how exactly is this verification done?
The name in my Aadhaar card is mentioned as – “Dharmin Vijaykumar Doshi”
UAN portal shows my name as “Dharmin Doshi” and my middle name (father’s name) as “Vijay P Doshi”.
So while verifying Aadhaar, does it check for “Vijaykumar” as my father’s name in UAN portal and is therefore rejecting it; or there isn’t any middle name present in UAN portal thereby rejecting Aadhaar verification?
Confused!
Dharmin-It will fetch the data as per Aadhaar.
Yes.
But this data fetched from Aadhaar is verified against
1) my name in UAN portal OR
2) my name and father’s name in UAN portal OR
3) name mentioned under the field “Name as per document” on KYC page?
Dharmin-3)
Ok. So a last question based on above response.
Employer didn’t mention my middle name in “name as per doc” field while adding Aadhaar to KYC and is approved by them, but does not get verified.
If I am trying to add again with correct name and aadhaar number under KYC, it directly gives me the authentication and name error.
So if I can’t update it again in KYC, how do I go about it now?
Dharmin-I am not sure why you are confusing. Just update the records as per Aadhaar.
Hello,
My name with my previous employer was not my full name and it was the same with my UAN. Say if my full name was Ram Shyam Bham, the name in my previous employer and UAN was Ram S B only.
I was there in that company for short term and I exited that company before any KYC was seeded to UAN. I gave my previous employer’s UAN to my present employer to link their PF account and my present employer’s PF account is linked to this UAN now.
My name in Aadhaar, Passport, PAN, Bank details and in my present employer is full name i.e Ram Shyam Bham and not Ram S B and I want my full name in everything permanently. So with your above online method, I can have my UAN name changed to full name but what about transferring my previous employer’s PF amount? As my name in previous employer is just Ram S B, will I face difficulties in transferring the amount once my name in UAN is changed to my full name? As present employer PF account is already linked to this UAN, I cannot withdraw my previous PF account also now.
I cannot have my name in UAN as just Ram S B as it will not match with Aadhaar and other documents.
I feel I am in a fix. What do you suggest I can do?
Chetan-As you are using the same old UAN now also, by changing the details in current UAN, it will automatically reflected in the earlier EPF also.
Thank you for clarifying that previous EPF accounts would also reflect the name change as per UAN but the name in previous employer will still be different. Won’t it be a mismatch and they will reject the PF transfer? Do you suggest to do PF transfer via online or through previous employer manually considering the name in previous employer will be different and there are chances of being a mismatch?
Chetan-Use manual transfer.
Thank you Sirjee. That was a timely article for me 🙂
Viren-Pleasure 🙂
Hello Basavaraj,
My name changes have been approved by my employer. Now, the site says that it is “Pending at field office”.
I assume that this means EPFO office. Is there anything that I can do to get this done or just keep on waiting till they do it? Any idea on this?
Viren-You have to wait.
Ok. Thank you.
Hi,
I also have another query for you. I want to update husband name/husband to father name/father details on my member details & UAN card as my husband is no more with me. Can you help me with the process. I have read some of your blogs on this subject. But there is no UAN help desk option available on EPFO > For Employees > Services.
kindly advise. Thanks!!
Nagamani-For correction, you have to first update Aadhaar details. Once it is done, then by referring above post, you can easily correct the details.
Hi,
I got the message while updating basic details. “Aadhaar is already verified. Your details aren’t editable. ”
My Aadhaar has my father name. But in my PF member details/UAN card it is showing my husband name.
I want my father name in all places. Please advise.
Thanks!!
Nagamani-Then you have to update your Aadhaar details as per your requirement.
You didnot understand my query here. My Aadhaar has correct details as per my requirement. But my pf details page has incorrect details. how can i correct those?
Nagamani-If your Aadhaar has correct details like your parent’s name, then let me know when you changed Aadhaar details.
My Aadhaar has accurate details such as my father name & my name, DOB etc. There are no changes in my AADHAAR since it was issued.
If PF data base picks details from Aadhaar, then it should pick my father name & relationship correctly. But that was not happened here even after Aadhaar verification completed on my UAN.
I believe, it is not only Aadhaar from which PF is consuming the details but also something else like employer’s db, PAN db possibly.
My UAN card is generated when i was in my previous company. Now i moved out of it. What i would like to know here is how can i change my father/husband name on my UAN card now.
To change details on UAN card, there should be details updated “somewhere” on employee pf data base. But the sad part is, we don’t know where is that “Somewhere” and we don’t have accurate guidelines for it.
Anyway, thanks for taking time to answer us.
FYI – My Aadhaar has been issued in 2011. By that time, there is no UAN in picture.
Nagamani-In that case, suggest you to raise an issue online using EPFO Grievance Cell.
Pardon, I tried that also, Even after filling all the details irrespective of mandatory & non mandatory on case page, it is not getting submitted. It’s keeps on prompting saying “Fill all * mandatory fields.”.
My apologies to say “Disguesting grievance management & its helpline”
Nagamani-Then no option but to approach physically to concerned EPFO and try your luck.
Hi,
I have applied online for my PF transfer from my prev comp to current comp on 13th Jun’17. I couldn’t see that request online for tracking since few months. Neither the funds transferred to my current pf account. My current employer is not able to track the request. not sure what is going on with my PF transfer. Can you guide me what to do?
Thanks in advance.
Nagamani-Request your employer to raise an issue with EPFO. Otherwise, you raise an issue with EPFO directly using the platform like EPFO Grievance Cell Online.
Hey , Thanks for a detailed post on UAN
i have an UAN (as per my payslip), but when i tried logging in UAN portal it says invalid UAN.
I assumed that my UAN may not have been activated , so i tried activating it online by providing all the detials and it says that my Date of Birth is incorrect.
So ,i just wanted to know why the UAN is invalid, and How to get Date of Birth Updated correctly
Thanks in Advance
Ajit-May be the error is due to wrong entry from your employer. You can do that correction through your employer.
Hi Sir,
As you have given instructions above regarding changing of basic details i have updated the mentioned steps properly now in the portal also i am able to see “Pending at employer”. So can you please let me know how much duration it will take to complete this approval process after i get approval from Employer..
Thanks for your great help again.
Thanks,
Ram
Ram-They have not set any deadline for process completion. Hence, you have to wait.
I have got my name changed yesterday through this ‘modify details’ process, which is great. Looks like field approval is done within 30 days at least. This is for everyone.
Thanks for helping us with all the information. Regular reader of your blog.
EPFO should test these features properly before releasing. I’m getting this error every time
‘Aadhaar verification service is not working right now. Please try after some time.’
Anyone else getting the same?
Raj-It is not with EPFO but the issue with UIDAI. There may be some technical issue. Better you try after some time.
