To avail all the facilities provided by Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO), it is very important now for all the account holders to get their Aadhaar Card linked with their EPFO and UAN Account. Get full details here: HOW TO LINK AADHAR WITH EPF & UAN?
Latest Update – As mostly EPFO members complained that the UAN Helpdesk is not working anymore as they always face some errors while they try to update their details.
Well, EPFO has made the process of update details much easy. One can now Update name, Date of Birth & Gender easily using the Unified member portal. Read EPF UAN name, gender and date of birth correction – NEW PROCEDURE to get in-depth details.
To manage the member’s provident fund contributions more sufficiently The Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) did some significant changes in its working procedure.
The change they did was to introduce UAN which stands for “Unique Account Number”. Result the employees can now manage their PF accounts more easily.
In most cases when an employee Changes or Join a new organization, Their EPF number will also get changed. So, in this case, most of the time if a number of job changes, the employee might have different Provident Fund accounts.
The result, If the employee wants to withdraw their Provident Fund balance from his/her previous employees was possible but this process needs so much paperwork and the employee has to apply one by one at each of his previous employers to get his PF balance transferred or withdrawn.
Fortunately, the Employees Provident Fund Organisation INDIA changes the whole process and introduced the UAN – Universal Account Number which will remain the same doesn’t how many times an employee changes his/her organisation for which they used to work.
Under the Employees Provident Fund, the UAN stands for Universal Account Number.
This number will not change doesn’t matter how many times you change or quit any job, this 12 digit UAN number would remain the same.
Unlike EPF account number, it does not change with the change of the job. The EPFO issued UAN number to every active member of EPF. 7.86 crore UAN number allotted to the members of EPF.
There are about 15 crore EPF members. Almost every active member of EPF has got the UAN.(Employee or EPF Account holder)
