Extended Deadline for Aadhaar Update: How to Update Your Aadhaar Card Online and Offline

The government has extended the deadline for updating Aadhaar cards. The new deadline is June 14, 2035, giving everyone more time to update their information. The previous deadline was June 14, 2024, but many people still haven’t updated their Aadhaar details.

Here’s how you can update your Aadhaar:

Online Update:

1. Visit UIDAI website: Go to https://uidai.gov.in.

2. Enter details: Provide your Aadhaar number, mobile number, and captcha code.

3. Receive OTP: Get an OTP on your mobile.

4. Log in: Use the OTP to log in.

5. Upload documents: Upload scanned copies of your documents (e.g., address proof, ID proof).

6. Track request: Note down the service request number to check your update status.

Why should you update your Aadhaar?

It’s important to keep your Aadhaar details updated. If your child’s Aadhaar was created when they were under 5 years old, their biometric details (like fingerprints and eye scan) need to be updated twice—once when they turn 5, and again when they turn 15. This is to make sure the Aadhaar data stays accurate.

Offline Update:

1. Download the form: Go to the UIDAI website and download the Aadhaar update form.

2. Fill out the form: Complete the form with your details.

3. Submit documents: Take the filled form and your ID documents (like passport, voter ID, or utility bill) to the Aadhaar center.

4. Biometric update: Give your fingerprints and photo at the center.

5. Get a receipt: After the update, you’ll receive a receipt with a URN (Unique Request Number) to track your update.

Updating your Aadhaar ensures that your personal information stays correct and up to date!
