EPFO has recently issued a circular in this regard. According to EPFO, in case of death of EPF members, regional authorities were facing various difficulties in linking and verifying their Aadhaar details. In such cases, there was a delay in payment to the nominee of the EPF member.

Regional authority will give approval

According to EPFO, since Aadhaar details cannot be corrected after the death of the member, claim verification will now be approved on physical basis without linking Aadhaar in all death cases. This process can be done only after the permission of the regional authorities. Not only this, the membership of deceased persons and claimants will also be investigated to avoid fraud in such cases.
