UAN-Aadhaar linking deadline extended till this date for these establishments – Check details

Aadhaar number seeding with the Universal Account Number (UAN) makes withdrawal and transfer of Provident Fund (PF) easier for the employees. On a regular basis, the employers have to submit the electronic challan-cum-returns (ECR) carrying employee’s details with the EPFO. The ECR is to be filed only for those employees who have their Aadhaar number seeded with the UAN.

This new rule was to be implemented from June 1, 2021, but later on it was extended till September 1, 2021. Now, the deadline for Aadhaar linking of UAN has been extended till December 31, 2021 for establishments in the North East and certain other establishments.
