    • Maybe your details (name, date of birth) in your PF account and Aadhar is not matching. Please correct the wrong details, after correction you activate your UAN.
      If your PF details are wrong, correct them by submitting PF joint declaration form to your PF office.
      If your Aadhar details are wrong, visit your nearest Aadhar enrollment center to correct them.

    • Your details in PF should match your Aadhar details.
      If your Aadhar card details are wrong you need to correct them by visiting any nearest Aadhar enrollment center.
      If PF details are wrong you can correct them by submitting PF joint declaration form to your PF office.
