I have an EPFO account which is not linked to Aadhaar. When I try to log into it, it gives me this error: "Aadhaar is not available against UAN, Kindly seed Aadhaar through employer!"
What should I do here?
The employer isn't doing anything, and even if I think that the Aadhaar can be updated through the Umang app, then it's asking for the OTP which is linked to my EPFO account.
The problem
The number linked with this account used to be mine a long time ago when I was in Punjab, but when I moved from Punjab to Haryana, I no longer possess that number. I tried to re-register that number, but it is now assigned to someone else. How can I access my EPFO account now?
I really need my money, and without resolving this issue, I cannot do anything here. Please help me!

Can you please tell us why "the employer is not doing anything" when he is expected to update the KYCs of the member any time it is asked for?

Well, firstly, I'm not doing any job now as I've quit my company in 2020, and now I don't have any job. I've started my own business. So all I can do is contact my previous employer, right? I've emailed them many times regarding my KYC for EPFO, and they are not helping me out in any way possible.
Issue with PF Release
Also, I think they're not releasing my PF because when I left the company, a party sent an email to the company stating they have unfinished business with me that I need to sort out. However, I had a NOC from that party which I provided to the company. I visited that party about 3 times with my boss before quitting my job, and they always said, "Haa sara hisab clear hai," which means everything is clear.
Difficulty in Withdrawing PF
Now, I don't really know how I can withdraw my PF. I've worked for that company for about 10 years, always experienced pretty good growth, and yet they aren't helping me here. They sent me an email for a PF withdrawal slip, but I cannot access my EPFO account at all!
