Can I Join My Company Without a Complete Date of Birth on My Aadhaar Card?

Hello PriyaranjannGreetings,

Understanding your dilemma, your Aadhaar card only includes your birth year, and you have to join your company in just two days. The update process is taking longer, and you're exploring options. In this article, we will explore your options for joining the company, including the possibility of obtaining an e-PAN card temporarily.

PAN Card Application Methods

1. Online PAN Card Application:

For those who want to expedite the process, applying for a PAN card online is a faster alternative. You can apply for a PAN and obtain an e-PAN card, which is a digital version of the PAN card. This process typically takes 5-8 working days. However, if you need to join your company immediately, you can take a temporary measure.

2. Application Through Intermediary:

Another option is to apply through a professional intermediary who can expedite the process on your behalf. However, this service may come with additional costs.

Alternative Option: Form 49A Application

While waiting for your PAN card, you can apply for a Form 49A, which is a temporary proof of identity and address for tax purposes. Once you have the Form 49A, you can use it as a temporary measure to join your company. After receiving your PAN card, you can provide the company with a copy of the Form 49A as requested.

Aadhaar Card and Birth Date Update Process

To update the full birth date on your Aadhaar card, you will need to meet with a dedicated authentication officer (DAO). The process requires a few steps:

Step 1: First Visit for Aadhaar Application:
Initially, you would have to meet the DAO for the Aadhaar application. This is when you provide your personal details, including your birth date.

Step 2: Receive Enrollment Number and Application Form:
After the first visit, you will receive an enrollment number and a basic application form. This form will be used for your second visit.

Step 3: Update Full Birth Date:
During your second visit, you must provide the complete birth date, along with any supporting documents. Once your application is finalized, your Aadhaar card will be updated with your complete birth date.

Conclusion

In conclusion, while the process for updating your Aadhaar card with the full birth date may take time, you do have several options to bridge this gap and join your company. Applying for a PAN card or a temporary Form 49A can help you manage this situation effectively. If you need assistance, consider consulting with a professional intermediary to expedite the process.
