eKYC Portal of EPF Link UAN with Aadhaar without Employer

On 17 Oct 2017, EPFO launched an online facility for its subscribers to link their 12-digit unique Aadhaar number with their Universal (portable PF) Account Number (UAN) on Oct 2017.  Using new facility eKYC at EPFO’s website www.epfindia.gov.in,EPFO members can online link their respective UAN with Aadhaar. In this process, your employer is not involved. Use eKYC portal if your Aadhaar is not linked with your UAN. Your details in UAN such as Name and Date of Birth should match Aadhaar.

Overview of How to link Aadhaar with UAN using EPFO eKYC Portal?

If there are any discrepancies (for example your name in UAN can be different to the name provided in Aadhaar), you need to get them corrected either in UAN (through your employer) or in Aadhaar card.

If your Aadhaar is already linked with your UAN you don’t need to do this. Section How to Verify your KYC (PAN, Bank Details, Aadhaar) in UAN explains that in detail.

  • click on “Generate OTP” button.
  • Enter the OTP, which you have to enter and provide your Aadhaar number.
  • After the successful OTP verification and if your personal details between UAN – Aadhaar match then Aadhaar will be linked to your UAN.
  • You can also track whether UAN is linked with Aadhar using eKYC portal through TRACK EKYC.

Why Link Aadhaar with UAN for EPF?

KYC and UAN for EPF

KYC means know your customer.If you have your KYC details in your UAN and they are approved by your employer then dependency on the employer goes away. To withdraw you can directly approach EPFO.  After logging on to UAN Website(https://unifiedportal-mem.epfindia.gov.in/memberinterface/) you can click Manage->KYC  to see or add your details. You can add details like PAN, Aadhar, and Passport for KYC.  The Image below shows the Approved KYC details. If you have Aadhar linked and approved by your employer then you would see it in Approved KYC section.

You should have at least Bank Number, Aadhaar linked to your UAN. It is good to have PAN linked also. (When you do EPF withdrawal before 5 years as TDS is deducted)

  7. Hi,

    My KYC details are pending to be approved by employer, but my company is closed and no one has access to approve my KYC details.
    So, what should I do to make my details approved without employer, so I can withdraw my PF money.
    Hoping something concrete.

  11. Today on 12th March, FO has accepted my Aadhar details and it is coming as Demographically verified. Thank you for this 🙂
    However in front of PAN nothing is mentioned not verified or not even unverified(in Home page of EPFO site).

    I went to check that if my PAN and Aadhar are linked (https://iwu.epfindia.gov.in/eKYC/LinkUanAadhaar) and it is correctly linked.

    I don’t know now how to get PAN verified, can you please help me?
    Many thanks 🙂

  32. So, I’ve worked in 2 companies (A, B) so far whose job experience I do not want to disclose to my new company which I’m going to join (C). When I login to my PF portal, I can see my service history.

    Now, I’m 100 % sure that when my new company (NC) verifies my work history, I wouldn’t get caught as I’ve staged everything perfectly with the fake experience in a startup (S).

    But, here’s what I’m afraid of. I hold a UAN number and two PFs from my actual past employers.

    1. I want to hide this UAN and PF details in my new company. I’ll say I’ve never had PF so far as my previous startup did not have PF facility as it has less than 20 employees anyway. Will my new company create a new PF number to me?

    2. What are the adds that they could get to know my actual experience using my Aadhaar number?

    3. What are the other suitable options for me to make sure I wouldn’t caught?

    I would appreciate if someone helps me here.

  34. I have couple of problems. I will list them one by one.

    1) My AADHAR has name after marriage and my pan and UAN have old names. My employer has already approved my pan details. Now the system is not allowing me to link AADHAR. What I have to do? Correct UAN, PAN and my bank account name? Or only UAN. Even my passport has name after marriage.

    2) Does my bank details also have to be approved by my employer? If so , then my bank account has old name in it. Does this mean that this also needs update?

    3) I am not working for the employer anymore and I am not able to update my KYC in epf portal. I am getting the below error : This functionality will be available, once your UAN is linked to any establishment. What I am supposed to do now

    4) Instead of modifying all these documents (PAN, bank account, UAN etc) Can I withdraw PF in old fashion?

    On top of all these i have my DOB wrong in AAdhar which needs to be fixed after correcting all the above problems.

    I am tired of all these stupid processes. Please advice me on how to proceed. I really need help.

    • Have you opened your UAN account yourself through Aadhaar?
      If yes, you cannot add PAN or Bank Details as there is PF account or Member Id linked to the UAN.
      Once there is a contribution by an employer PAN/Bank Details would be allowed as they have to be verified and approved by the employer.

        Reply

        • As you generated the UAN based on Aadhaar yourself, you cannot update your KYC as there is no employer who can verify your details.
          Once you join an organization then your employer will ask you for your PAN and bank account number and update it.

    Reply

    • You need to get mobile number registered in Aadhaar.
      You need to visit the nearest enrollment centre to add your mobile number. No additional documents are required.
      if you are visiting an enrolment centre for the correction/update you need to pay a fee of Rs 29.50(25 + GST) each time you get your details updated.
      Step 1: Visit the Aadhaar Enrolment/Update Centre

      Step 2: Fill the Aadhaar Update Form

      Step 3: Enter only your current mobile number in the form

      Step 4: You need not mention your previous mobile number

      Step 5: You do not have to provide any proof for updating your mobile number

      Step 6: The executive will register your request

      Step 7: You will be handed over the acknowledgement slip containing the URN

      Step 8: A fee of ₹ 25+GST has to be paid for availing this service

    • Change of spelling in Aadhaar will not be updated in UAN.
      You would have to go through the process of changing the name in UAN, approval from the employer, PAN Verification.
      What is the name in PAN card?
      We would request you to take one spelling and stick to it in all your professional/tax related documents.
      If current spelling in Aadhaar/UAN/PAN match then just let it be.
      As Shakespeare said, “What’s in a name?”

  43. Hi,
    I just did eKYC by authenticating with Aadhaar, following the instructions in this article. Many thanks for this article, without which I would not have known about this process. (Why the EPFO must scatter their functions across multiple websites is beyond me).

    I got the following message, so I am optimistic. But I have just one question:
    I have another UAN linked with my (same) Aadhaar. Will that be an issue? Will that prevent the Aadhaar from linking.

    Dear Member,
    Your Aadhaar Details XXXX XXXX XXXX against UAN XXXX XXXX XXXX
    has successfully been verified.

    Details will be updated by 28-03-2018

    • You can update your KYC information in your EPF account online using UAN EPFO portal.
      Login to your UAN website
      click on the Manage tab.
      In the Manage tab, select the KYC option.
      Under the KYC details, select the checkbox for PAN
      Add the PAN number, Name as per the document
      Click on Save
      If there is no error, then these documents appear in Pending KYC section.
      You have to wait for the employer to approve the KYC details.

      After approval by your employer, these documents appear in Digitally Approved KYC as shown in the image here.

    • No Aadhar Verified means your Aadhar details have been verified.
      If you could submit the claim online then it should take 3-20 days for the money to be credited to your account.
      You will get regular updates though SMS.

    • You need to activate it yourself.
      Once you receive the Universal account number or UAN from your employer, you have to go to the official website UAN website‘
      Our article UAN or Universal Account Number and Registration of UAN explains the steps in detail.
      Click on Activate UAN.
      Enter the details and Click on Get Authorisation PIN
      You will receive an authorisation PIN on your mobile. Click on Submit button.

      Webpage will show that member’s credentials are verified. This screen allows the member to create the password for login to this portal to have an access to the facilities provided in the UAN Member Portal. User Name will always be your UAN. This completes the registration

      After submitting the, screen will come and the message will go to the member’s phone for successful registration to access UAN driven member portal. Member must record this username and password to use it further. Remember your UAN would be the user ID

    • Basically, “Your connection is not private” or “Net::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID” error appears on screen due to the SSL error . SSL (secure sockets layer) is used by websites to keep all the information you enter on their pages private and secure.
      Click on Advanced and see the error.

      • Are you still working?
        Can you login to UAN website using your Login?
        If there are any discrepancies (for example your name in UAN can be different to the name provided in Aadhaar), you need to get them corrected either in UAN (through your employer) or in Aadhaar card.

        Reply

    • If you can login to UAN you can submit application for correction of Date of Birth, as explained in the article How to Correct EPF Details like Name,Father Name,Date of Joining
      The process involves employee raising the online request by logging onto UAN website. The request will then be forwarded to Employer you can approve or reject the request online. If the employer approves then request will go to EPFO Field Office where Dealing Assistant, Section Supervisor and then APFC/RPFC will reject or approve the request.
