Sub:Introduction of Online request functionality to EPF Subscribers for correction  in name, DOB and Gender  regarding.

Madam/Sir,

Many references are being received that members are facing problem in seeding Aadhaar with UAN due to mismatch in Name, DOB or Gender in UAN data and UIDAI data.

Currently, if employee wants to correct his/her basic details against UAN, employee and employer are required to submit a joint request to the concerned EPFO field office for correction of above mentioned basic details of employee. In order to reduce the paper work and time delaya functionality has been developed where member can give online request to his/ her employer at Member Interface in the Unified Portal for correction in basic details. While accepting request from member, system will compare the requested changes with similar fields received from UIDAI (AADHAAR). After successful verification, this request will be automatically transferred to employer’s login for online transmission to EPFO field office. In turn, after getting online request from member and employer, EPFO field office will process the requested corrections.

A dashboard shall be provided to the Field Offices to monitor such requests.

Process flow for the same is enclosed herewith.

Yours faithfully
