Name Mismatch in Bank Accounts and EPFO Records: How Are You Handling Withdrawals?

jagat parashar
Currently, we are facing a problem with EPF withdrawals for our employees because their names differ between the EPFO portal and their bank accounts. However, the bank is not willing to change the name on the account.

The name as per the Aadhaar card and bank account should be the same. Please recheck once and upload the same for withdrawal/advance.

Hello, for successfully linking your bank account to your UAN, KYC details such as name and DOB should be the same. I suggest the employee approach the bank and submit the Aadhaar card as KYC for correction of bank details exactly as per the Aadhaar Card. Once the new passbook is issued, you can successfully link it via the Member Portal.

Hope this helps.

Does the Father's Name Affect the KYC Approval Process?
An employee's name is mentioned with his/her father's name in the bank passbook, leading to KYC rejections. However, if they remove their father's name, some of the KYCs get approved. Does the father's name affect the KYC approval process?
