Provident Fund (PF) Govt. Notification & Process Flow Chart for Online Name, DOB, or Gender Correction
EPFO Office has issued a notification that if there are any personal details corrections (Name, DOB, or Gender), then the employee can directly do it ONLINE from their UAN portal, and the same request will go to the Employer. The employer will validate it online, and the intimation will go to the PF office. The EPF staff will then process the requested corrections. Currently, if an employee wants to correct his/her basic details against UAN, the employee and employer are required to submit a joint request to the concerned EPFO field office. In order to reduce the paperwork, the EPFO has now launched a new facility wherein an employee can now submit an online request for EPF UAN name correction. There is no need to fill out the Name change/correction form.
