Sir,
As per Head Office letters/circulars under reference, the procedure of change of date of birth has been elaborated and systematized and needs to be adhered to by the field offices. A member, having a systematically verified and linked Aadhaar with EPFO database will not be allowed to change date of birth again.
2. It is clarified that Aadhaar linking as per clause 3 (i) of the letter of 07.10.2016 cited 2nd above, means that the employee’s aadhaar number has been checked by the employer and submitted to the EPFO electronically or alternatively that the employee has submitted the same through common service centres as envisaged vide circular no. CAIU/011(27)/2017/KYC/34320 dated 24.03.2017 and RI/CDAC/Aadhaar/2014/Vol 11/5498 dated 28.06.2017.
