EPFO Allows Online Profile Updates: Guide to Changing Details, Documents Required
- •EPFO subscribers can now update various profile details online, including name, date of birth, address, and nationality.
- •Changes can be made without uploading documents if the UAN was activated before October 1, 2017, and validated with Aadhaar, requiring employer approval.
- •Nationality changes are permitted when the field is blank (to 'Indian') or changing from 'Indian' to 'international'.
- •If UAN is not Aadhaar-linked, a physical joint declaration must be submitted to the employer, who then uploads it to EPFO.
- •In cases where the employer's operations are closed, a joint declaration signed by a gazetted officer, MP, or other listed officials is required.
Why It Matters: EPFO simplifies profile updates online, with specific conditions for document-free changes and offline processes.
