The Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) allows its members to rectify mistakes made in Employees Provident Fund accounts (EPF Accounts). Many times, there is a mistake in the EPF account of the employee, including the name, date of birth and other information. Employees can rectify these mistakes in their IFF records through online. After the introduction of Universal Account Number (UAN) in the year 2014, all the procedures related to EPF have become easier.

For your information, let us tell you that the universal account number is a unique 12-digit code. It is linked to the PF account of the EPFO member. Through UAN, members can easily manage their EPF account online. The member's UAN is required to be active to rectify the mistakes in the EPF account. Also it is necessary for the member to have an Aadhaar card.

Apart from this, the process of updating the information in the PF account is in two stages. One stage is at the level of the employee and the second stage is at the level of the employer. Let's know how you can change the details of EPF account.

Step 3. Now you have to enter your Aadhaar number.
