You can recover your UAN password by clicking on the ‘Forgot Password’ option at Member Interface of Unified Portal and filling in the necessary details. You can link your Aadhaar with UAN via the EPFO member e-SEWA portal, UMANG app or by visiting the nearest EPFO office.

You can update your mobile number registered with EPFO online by logging into the EPFO member portal and updating the same in the “Contact Details” section.
I can’t change my adhar name on portal through epfo or UMANG. I am trying since last 6 to 8 month
If you want to change your name with EPFO, you can request your employer to check and verify the same for you. However, in case you want to change your name in Aadhaar card, you can visit the nearest Aadhaar Seva Kendra
I am unable to activate my UAN due to name mismatch. I asked my employer and they submitted JD form to EPFO office. It has been more than 2 months and no updates on that. No one is picking call on helpline number. I sent email, that also not been responded. Please tell me what to do now? I am from gujarat and my work location is bengaluru. I am doing work form home.
You can contact your employer to help you track the status. In case this does not help, you can visit the relevant EPFO office and try and get your issue resolved.
I am unable to link my Aadhaar to my UAN either in the EPFO portal or via UMANG app. Both throw some errors. I am also not able to visit to any EPFO office as I met with an accident.
Please advise if I can do this activity through email.
Thanks for your help on this.
You can wait for some time and then try again to link your Aadhaar with UAN either via the EPFO portal or UMANG app.
