Recent circulars from the EPFO mandate strict adherence to joint declaration forms for modifying member profiles. The process requires employers to maintain detailed documentation of any corrections made to employee records.
Employers should ensure that all KYC details match exactly with Aadhaar records to prevent claim rejections. A joint declaration must be signed by both the employee and the authorized signatory of the establishment.
Key Steps for Compliance
- Verify UAN and Aadhaar linkage.
- Collect supporting documents (Pan, Aadhaar, Passport).
- Submit physical/digital copies to the regional PF office.
Failure to comply may result in delayed settlements and potential notices from the department.
