ESIC Aadhar Seeding Application due to e-KYC changes by UIDAI. The letter provides instructions and updates regarding the process of seeding Aadhar details for insurance persons and their family members. Here’s a summary of the key points in the letter:

  1. Background: The letter refers to previous instructions on Aadhar seeding issued on 25.05.2023 and 31.10.2023.
  2. UIDAI e-KYC Update: UIDAI has updated its e-KYC response, specifically regarding the sharing of the date of birth. If the date of birth in UIDAI is recorded as ‘declared or approximate,’ only the year of birth was being shared on the ESIC Aadhaar Seeding application.
  3. ESIC Portal Update: The ESIC Portal has been updated to allow users to select the date and month (Date/MM) during the Aadhaar seeding process, based on available documentary evidence. When the declared date of birth matches with the details in ESIC records, Aadhar will be seeded. In case of a mismatch, an update IP details request will be generated for approval.
  4. Procedure for Cases with Only Year Visible: In cases where only the year is visible in the date of birth column after seeding Aadhaar details, the person handling Aadhaar seeding will enter the date and month based on Aadhar Card or other documentary evidence. The Aadhar number will be seeded accordingly. Such cases will be marked distinctly on the profile of the insurance person as declared Date of Birth, subject to verification when necessary.
  5. Deleted Blank Cases: All blank cases of Aadhaar mismatch requests from the last 15 days have been deleted from the backend. Field offices are instructed to approach the individuals again to seed their Aadhar numbers in the ESIC portal.
  6. Help Files: The letter mentions that help files containing screenshots of the updated portal are attached for guidance.
  7. Compliance Request: Field offices are requested to ensure strict compliance with these guidelines and expedite the Aadhaar Seeding work.
