The Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has made several changes to the EPF account rules, which have come into effect from September 1.
Under this, if you have not linked your PF account and UAN with Aadhaar, then the employer will not be able to contribute to your PF. Apart from this, withdrawal and other types of problems may also have to be faced. A deadline of August 31 was fixed for this.
Will not be able to see employer contribution
The government has made it mandatory to link EPF account with Aadhaar. This provides many benefits to the shareholder. If the account is not linked, your employer will not be able to add the amount to the account. Apart from this, you will also not be able to see the total contribution of the amount deposited by the employer in the account.
Will not be able to withdraw money when needed
If your EPF account is not linked with Aadhaar, then you will not be able to make any withdrawal from EPF. Now it is mandatory to link the EPAP account with Aadhaar for any kind of withdrawal. This can become a problem not only for you but for your dependents.
It is easy to link with Aadhaar
First of all login to the EPFO ​​portal. After that enter the mobile number linked with UAN and Aadhaar. Then click on Click to Generate OTP. After entering the OTP, select the gender. After that enter the aadhaar number and click on aadhar verification. Now click on mobile or email verification option. After this another OTP number will come on your mobile or email. Verify this OTP and then complete the process of UAN and Aadhaar linking.
