The
Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has put in place a
facility to update address in Aadhaar online with the consent of the
Head of Family (HoF).
Officials said that the HoF based
online address update in Aadhaar will be of great help to the
relative(s) of a resident-like children, spouse, parents, etc., who
don't have supporting documents in their own name to update address in
their Aadhaar.
It can be done by submitting Proof of Relationship
documents like ration card, marksheet, marriage certificate, passport,
etc., mentioning the name of both the applicant and HOF and the
relationship between them and OTP based authentication by the HOF. In
case even Proof of Relationship document is not available, UIDAI
provides the resident to submit a self-declaration by the HOF in the
UIDAI prescribed format.
"With people moving cities and towns due
to various reasons within the country, such a facility will be
beneficial for millions of people. This choice would be in addition to
the existing address update facility using any valid Proof of Address
document prescribed by UIDAI. Any resident above the age of 18 can be an
HOF for this purpose and can share his/her address with his/her
relatives through this process," said the Ministry of Electronics and IT
on Tuesday.
In the 'My Aadhaar' portal, a resident can choose
this option while seeking to update their address online. Following
which, the resident will be allowed to enter the Aadhaar number of the
HOF, which will only be validated. No other information of the HOF's
Aadhaar will be displayed on the screen to maintain adequate privacy of
HOF.
Post successful validation of Aadhaar number of HOF, the resident will be required to upload the Proof of Relationship document.
As
per the UIDAI, residents have to pay the fee Rs 50/- for the service.
On successful payment, a service request number (SRN) would be shared
with the resident, and an SMS would be sent to the HOF about the address
request. The HOF to approve the request and give his/her consent by
logging into the My Aadhaar portal within 30 days from the date of
receiving the notification and the request will be processed.
If
the HOF refuses to share her/his address, or does not accept or decline
within the stipulated 30 days of SRN creation, the request would be
closed. The resident, seeking address update through this option, will
be informed about the closure of the request via an SMS. In case the
request is closed or rejected due to non acceptance of the HOF or
rejected during the process, the amount shall not be refunded to the
applicant, said the UIDAI.
