Employee Can Change Date of Birth difference two dated less than three Year

Dear Employer,

In a move to extend the availability and reach of online services in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, it has been decided to facilitate PF members to rectify their date of birth in EPFO records, thus ensuring that their UAN is KYC compliant.

The date of birth recorded in 'Aadhaar'  will now be accepted as valid proof of date of birth for the purpose of rectification, provided that the difference in the two dates is less than 3 years.

The PF subscribers can submit the correction requests online.

This will enable us to validate the date of birth of members online with UIDAI instantaneously, thus authenticating and reducing the processing time of change requests.

In view of the above, you are requested to kindly file online requests for such change immediately, enabling PF members in financial distress, to apply online for availing non refundable advance from their PF accumulations to tide over the COVID-19 pandemic.

Regards,

EPFO
