Hi Sreekanth, Would you please advise if I have to link my mobile number with adhaar if I want to withdraw pf online. I do not have any mobile no linked with adhaar. If yes, can I do it without visiting India?

Hi, Linking mobile number to Aadhaar is not mandatory for PF withdrawal. However, if you would like to make online EPF withdrawal, it is mandatory to seed Aadhaar number to your UAN.

Thanks Sreekanth. The first link says ". So, your mobile number linked to your UAN and Aadhar should be one and the same." Does it mean my mobile number has to be linked with my Adhar? My mobile numbe is linked with my UAN, but I do not have any mobile number associated with my Adhaar. I want to withdraw full epf and eps.

Hi, What I mean is , when we get Aadhaar done, we would have given a mobile number right, that mobile number and the one which is updated in UAN should be the same to receive OTP. This is for online withdrawal process. The EPF can be withdrawn offline as well, if online mode is not possible.
