Dear User,
On the topic of Employee Provident Fund (EPF) and Aadhaar Card linkage, the latest notification from the EPFO (Employees' Provident Fund Organisation) has indeed mentioned that the Aadhaar Card is not made mandatory for EPF services.
Here's a step-by-step guide on how you can continue to access your EPF services without the Aadhaar Card:
1. 🤑 You can submit your EPF withdrawal or transfer requests without the requirement of Aadhaar card authentication. Instead, you can use other identity proofs like PAN card or bank details.
2. 💯 To do this, log in to the EPFO's member portal using your Universal Account Number (UAN) and password.
3. ✅ Once logged in, you can submit your claim or transfer requests under the 'Online Services' section.
However, bear in mind that while Aadhaar is not mandatory, having it linked to your EPF account can make the process smoother and quicker. This is because Aadhaar-based authentication is more straightforward and less prone to errors or discrepancies.
🔒 Reference: The EPFO, under the Ministry of Labour and Employment, Government of India, issued this notification. It's based on the Supreme Court judgment in the case of 'Justice K.S. Puttaswamy (Retd.) II' Vs 'Union of India' where it was ruled that Aadhaar is not mandatory for availing services.
Remember, the goal of these changes is to make EPF services more accessible and user-friendly. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, don't hesitate to ask.
