I have been holding a Pan card since my college days (more than 30 yars. old). However, my name in the PAN card has my middle name whreas the rest of the document (education, aadhaar, passport, DL etc.) have the correct name. Does that create a problem in BGV or KYC in EPFO portal? I hope it doesn't because PAN number is still the same. Please enlighten!

The discrepancy in your name between your PAN card and other documents can indeed lead to issues during a Background Verification (BGV) or KYC verification on the EPFO portal. Even though your PAN number remains the same, the details associated with it should match across all official documents.
Here's a step by step guide on how you can correct the name on your PAN card:
1. 👉 Visit the NSDL website (https://www.onlineservices.nsdl.com/paam/endUserRegisterContact.html)
2. 👉 Choose the 'Changes or Correction in existing PAN Data/Reprint of PAN Card (No changes in existing PAN Data)' option.
3. 👉 Fill in all the required details, ensuring that your name matches what's on your other documents.
4. 👉 After filling in the details, submit the form online. You'll get an acknowledgment number.
5. 👉 Print out the acknowledgment receipt, sign it, and send it along with the necessary documents (proof of identity, address, and date of birth) to the NSDL office.
6. 👉 Once the NSDL office receives your documents, they will process your request and send you a new PAN card with the corrected name.
Please remember, it's important to ensure that all your official documents have the same name to avoid any future discrepancies or difficulties.
After you've corrected your name in the PAN card, the next step is to update your KYC details in EPFO. Here's how you can do that:
1. 👉 Visit the UAN portal (https://unifiedportal-mem.epfindia.gov.in/memberinterface/)
2. 👉 Log in using your UAN and Password.
3. 👉 Go to the 'Manage' tab and select 'KYC' from the dropdown menu.
4. 👉 In the 'Update KYC Information' section, you can update your PAN details.
5. 👉 After updating the details, you can click on the 'Save' button.
Remember, the changes will be saved in the portal but they will be verified and approved by your employer. After the approval from the employer, the changes will be reflected in the EPFO records.
I hope this helps! Do get your documents updated to avoid any problems in the future. 👍
