EPFO has extended the deadline for UAN activation and Aadhaar linking to 30 June, 2025, benefiting workers in the unorganised sector and those on contractual jobs.
The earlier deadline was 31 May, 2025, and the extension allows more employees to access benefits under the Employees’ Deposit Linked Insurance (EDLI) scheme.
Activating UAN is crucial for accessing services like claiming PF, receiving EPS pension benefits, and availing life insurance from EPFO.
The activation process is online and requires providing UAN, name, date of birth, Aadhaar number, and mobile number on the EPFO member portal.
