Earlier I explained you about how to link Aadhaar to EPF online or offline. However, today EPFO launched a dedicated link on EPFO portal to link online without login.
I already wrote a detailed post on “How to link Aadhaar to EPF using online and offline?“. However, today EPFO launched a new facility, where you can link Aadhaar to EPF online without login.
Note:-If your details of UAN not matching with Aadhaar details like name, gender and date of birth, then you can update the UAN details online. Refer my latest post for the same “EPF UAN name, gender and date of birth correction – Online procedure“.
Why have we to link Aadhaar to EPF?
# Aadhaar is one of the important KYC document which contains details like your name, date of birth and address details along with your photo.
# By linking Aadhaar to EPF, you will make it easy to merge multiple UAN numbers into single UAN.
# Aadhaar is used as Proof of Identity (POI) and Proof of Address (POA). This will reduce the number of documents to upload into a single document.
# During withdrawal process of EPF, it makes easy for EPFO to verify your KYC credentials at ease.
These are the major benefits for link Aadhaar to EPF. There may be some different views of making Aadhaar linking as mandatory. But going forward Aadhaar may be one of the important document of your authentication.
How to link Aadhaar to EPF Online without login?
Earlier to link Aadhaar to EPF online, you have to log in to Unified Portal. However, from now onward you no need to login to EPFO portal and easily link Aadhaar to EPF online without login.
The process is as below.
Step 1– Visit EPFO Portal and go to “Online Services”. There you have to select “eKYC Portal”.
Step 2-The new eKYC window will open. There you have to select “Link UAN Aadhaar”.
Step 3– Here you have to provide your details like UAN number (mandatory), the mobile number which is linked to UAN. To this number, they send you OTP, which you have to enter and provide your Aadhaar number also, then click on Submit.
Another OTP will be sent to your mobile/email linked with Aadhaar. After OTP verification, if UAN details are matched with Aadhaar details, then UAN will be linked with Aadhaar. After linking, the EPFO you may avail online EPFO services linked with Aadhaar.
How to link Aadhaar to EPF online by login?
Using online facility of EPFO you can easily link your Aadhaar to EPF. Let us see the steps involved in this.
1) Go to EPFO Unified EPF Portal
Using your UAN number and Password login to Unified Portal.
2) Once you login, then the screen looks like below. Here, under Manage tab, select the KYC option from the drop-down menu.
3) Once you select KYC tab, then you will find the screen as below. Here, EPFO provided the options to update Bank details, PAN details, Aadhaar, Passport, Driving License, Election Card, Ration Card or NPR.
We have to select the option of Aadhaar. Enter the Aadhaar number and also the name as it appears in Aadhaar Card EXACTLY. Then click on SAVE tab.
The majority of employees will face the issues here. Due to a mismatch in names or service issues with either EPFO or UDAI, you may be unable to update it. If there is a mismatch with name, then try to inform the same immediately with your employer to resolve the issue.
4) Once you save it, then you can view the same under pending KYC option. The screen of that will look like below. Wait for around 15 days for approval. If it is approved, then your Aadhaar status will be available in “Approved KYC” area.
This is how you have to link Aadhaar to EPF.

Pratiksha
Hello Sir,
I have modified my Basic details through UAN Login as on 08/08/19 and twice visited to EPF regional office at Vashi in September month to the Accounts Department to authenticate my Name as per Aadhar. But still it shows status that “One request submitted directly to EPFO field office to Change name is pending for approval against UAN:xxxxxxxxxxxx”
Even Consultant of my company also submitted joint application to Vashi EPF Office

Sreekanth G
Hi, My first name and last name are interchanged in PF portal. Also my Adhaar or PAN is not linked to UAN. My mobile no is changed and I have forgot the password.Is there anyway i can fix it online or i need to visit epf office?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Sreekanth,
Update the same through your employer.
Somnath Mondal
Dear Sir.
I am facing exactly same situation as Sreekanth. Mobile number not in service, aadhar is not linked to UAN, forgot my password and on top of everything, I cannot contact my employer because they have shut their business due covid. Please help how to reset my password in such situation.
I have raised grievances twice to Social Security Assistant, Regional PF Commissioner and wrote to NDC on their suggestion but no help. They are suggesting same steps over and over again. Which is not helping me. When I am using forgot password link, after selecting no for OTP at registered number, the website is asking to link aadhar first, for which I must first be logged in or verify the OTP which is not possible.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Somnath,
Better to visit the regional EPFO personally.
Ahmad

Regards

Denzil Correa
Ahmed basic details will show you what is available in system and what you want as per aadhar on right side.If there is a difference in age of more than 1 year assuming that aadhar is correct you have to attach pdf of less than 3mb options birth cert,school leaving certificate or passport
Thanks

Denzil Correa
Navya Sri
You have to ensure that either your Aadhar or pan card name matches with your name in the System .Assuming your name is as above Pan or Aadhar must also be Navya Sri.Then forgot password option will work say no when otp to be sent to old mobile.

Its because EPFO manage both EPF and EPS for the organization who are not having any trust.
But in case of trust EPFO don’t Manage EPS.

Could you pls suggest on the next steps.

Hi Sir,
Thanks for your promt and quick respone, now i’m getting a new error.
“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).”
Again reached out to the EPFO Grievance website for this error they responded saying.
“You are requested to submit Aadhar based F-10c(physical) duly enclosing a cancelled cheque with name printed on it and mentioning your previous service.”
Could you please guide me where and what should i have to correct, I’m in need of money and this PF guys are asking one after other to do.
Regards,
Sreekanth Sheri.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Srikanth,
You submit as they guided.
Srikanth Sheri
Hi Sir,
I did not understand exactly what they are looking from me, what is “Aadhar based F-10c” were should i have to submit it.
Another thing is they mentioned “cheque with name printed on it and mentioning your previous service” what name should be on cheque and I’m working in the same company from 2010 to till date and its my first job.
Regards,
Sreekanth Sheri
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Dear Srikanth,
The form should be used if your Aadhaar is linked. On the cheque your name should be printed (personalized cheque).

Can you tell me what to do now?
Once again thank you for your help.

Hi, my pan, Aadhar everything is showing under approved list. But when u try to verify it is showing unexpected error. And when I try to click on claim it is showing your Aadhar I’d not authenticated by UIADI. Please contact EPFO office. I have verified my Aadhar in UIADI website. But still in EPFO same message is showing. Please help me.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Rohan-May be there are some data mismatch. Better you visit EPFO personally and link it.
Rohan K
Thanks for your promt reply. I checked. All the details are matching with the Aadhar. But In UAN portal my father name is there. But in Aadhar only my mother name is there. Is it the cause of the problem?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Rohan-That may be the cause.
Rohan K
Thanks. I will check it.
Rohan K
Hi,
I did correction to my Aadhar and now it is verified successfully in UAN portal. Thanks for your help. But now new issue is there. I was working in private MNC and it had exempted PF trust. Now i m having NPS in new job. In UAN portal when i try to click in Claim it is showing an error “As your establishment is exempted in PF, please submit your withdrawal case to concerned Trust.” Can’t i claim it online? Please help.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Rohan-I think you have to apply to your employer itself only as it is trust. But not sure why they did such differences.
Rohan K

Ruchi
I have generated and activate my UAN through Aadhaar. but I am not able to find my EPF account online as the format is not matching.
EPF account number mentioned on my salary slip is GJ/BD/20418-E/101161254
is not matching standard formats given on websites for the following 2 reasons
1) For Baroda – your website is giving code as VD/BRD where as my salary slip contains GJ/BD
2) Also there is an additional ‘E’ in ESTABLISHMENT ID (after 2nd forward slash) in account number given by my employer but EPF website is not accepting it. Website is giving error that it has to be digits only.
Due to above 2 problems neither I am able to check my passbook nor I am able to login and manage my account
Please help and suggest what should I do ?

I have uploaded my aadhar card and bank details in epfo portal a month ago for KYC to withdrawl PF . Still its in not approved. Your kind help will be required. What is the next course of action from my side ? Please provide your valuable inputs.
Basavaraj Tonagatti

Anuj
I tried linking UAN using method 1, where we input UAN. As soon as I input my UAN, it gives error “INCORRECT UAN!!”.
What kind of error is that? I’ve cross-checked my UAN several times and I’m putting in correct UAN.
Now since it gives this error, mobile number does not automatically populate and hence, not able to go ahead and generate OTP.
Has this happened to anyone else?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Anuj-If this is not working, then the only option is to update it offline by visiting the nearest EPFO Branch.
Samir Tamboli
I have linked my AADHAR with my UAN using new eKYC portal, but AADHAR is not verified in my PF portal login. When is tracked on eKYC portal, it says AADHAR is already linked. I am unable to transfer PF amount from my previous company. It seems eKYC portal and Member Login portal is not linked. this is useless service and PF officers first check before releasing any new system.
Everything has become mess with EPFO. educated people like us cannot do anything, I am just thinking about people which doesn’t have knowledge of internet and online services !!!
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Samir-I understand your frustration.

Basavaraj Tonagatti
Vasu-It hardly takes around a week time.
Eby
My name in Aadhaar is name + initial, which matches with all school certificates. My PAN is name + fathers name.
Thus both are different. My UAN name is as per PAN. Now I am unable to link.
Why can’t UAN Aadhaar linking be similar to the PAN Aadharr linking ?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Eby-In such situation better to visit the nearest EPFO branch and link it offline.
Ankit Mittal
My EPF account is of Chennai and I’m living in Pune now. I visited EPFO, Pune for offline seeding my AADHAAR and they said you have to go to Chennai as they don’t have access to change it ( because system is not yet centralised).
I did go through the first procedure i.e. eKYC portal by epfindia.gov.in and getting message as “Authentication not done by UIDAI.. Please visit nearest EPFO”.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ankit-Check whether any mismatch. If yes, then correct them. If no, then no option but to update with Chennai EPFO.
vipin vaishy
Hi Ma’am/Sir,
we are unable to upload the adhaar card in EPFO site my UAN no. and so the error message in give the bottom line.

Aadhaar authentication failed. AADHAAR number, Name, DOB or Gender mismatch with registered data.
so can you help me for upload the adhaar card
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Vipin-Whether all data match with both EPFO and Aadhaar?
Manjunath Ck
hi
i upload the aadhaar in EKYC portal and got successfully uploaded but while applying for online withdrawal through uan login it is showing as AADHAAR is not authenticated from UIDAI. Please authenticate your AADHAAR by visiting nearest EPFO office.
what shall i do for this
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Manjunath-If the status still showing not linked, then do as per the message.
Ramakrishna
Dear Basu,
My aadhaar number is not updated in KYC due to mis match. I have informed this to my employer. But they say there is no way that they can help me to link aadhaar and they are asking me to contact PF department.
Please provide solution. Can the employer link my aadhaar and PF number from their end ?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Ramakrishna-Better first correct the name (if it is wrong) and then go for linking. You can correct the name through your employer.
Amar
Basu, I tried linking my UAN to Aadhar through the new link provided in the epfo site. I finished all the steps and also entered the OTP for aadhar verification and clicked on submit. but its showing some HTTP error code 5oo. What does that mean?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Amar-I think it may be some technical error. Try after some time. If the error still persists, then raise the issue with EPFO Grievance Cell Online immediately.
Amar
Thank you. I have successfully linked my UAN to Aadhar. I used to work for Capgemini and when I contacted them about withdrawing my PF online, they are saying that I cannot do it online and I have to follow an offline procedure. Is it true? Please let me know and also kindly let me know the time taken for offline procedure.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Amar-If you are KYC complied, then using unified portal you can withdraw online.
Chandra
Can I apply once it is approved area? Without employer verification?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Chandra-Area?
Sreekanth J
Mobile No: field is disabled in the dedicated link. Any reason for that ?
Also PAN – Aadhaar linking went fine even though there is name mismatch (initials expanded). Is that the case here ? They are asking for two different OTPs for UAN and Aadhaar separately. Ideally that should be enough to link both the accounts. If they are still looking for exact matching, that is pathetic 🙁
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Sreekanth-Disabled because you can’t change your mobile number while updating this process. The name on PAN card may be different than the name in IT Dept databse. Hence, sometimes matching may be successful. Yes, they send two OTPs as I already explained in above post.
Raj
The Aadhaar OTP page to which EPFO redirects throws an error “X103: Unknown client” .. Seems they need to fix the portal redirection as you will see Aadhaar is passed as “null” to the Aadhaar OTP page
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Raj-May or there may be some data mismatch.
Rahul
The new facility of linking Adhaar to UAN account required to approved by employer or directly updated.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Rahul-Approval not required as the data matching is from EPFO data with UDAI.
RAJESH PAI
Dear Sir,
Happy Deepavali to You and Your family and all the staffs of basunivesh.com.

sudha
Hi, I am Sudha PF profile, my name is showing sudhakrishnasamy but Aadhaar is different so its not linking. How to change my name PF profile Name.
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Sudha-You have to correct the name as per your Aadhaar record through your employer.
Kapil Tiwari
Basu, does this mean one does not have to upload scanned copy of the Aadhaar as was required earlier? Secondly, does the Aadhaar get linked immediately to the EPF in this new procedure? No approval of Aadhaar required from the employer?
Basavaraj Tonagatti
Kapil-Sir, in the earlier process also (Unified portal), you just have to mention your Aadhaar number and the name as per Aadhaar. However, earlier you have to login to unified portal and then link. Now they created the dedicated link, where you can link it without login. In my view, it will get linked immediately if all data matches (exactly like Aadhaar linking to PAN). They do e-verification and you will receive the authentication email from Aadhaar.
