If your Aadhaar card is 10 years old or you have not updated your Aadhaar even once in the last 10 years, then there is big news for you. Today i.e. 14th December was the last chance to update Aadhaar for free but the government has extended it by three months.
UIDAI has said in one of its notifications that there has been a significant increase in Aadhaar updates in the last few months, given that we have also extended the date of free Aadhaar updates. Now Aadhaar can be updated for free for the next three months i.e. till 14.03.2024. Now the last date for updating the Aadhaar card has been fixed as 14 March 2024. Let us know the method….
For the Aadhaar update, you will need two important documents. First identity card and second address proof. Usually, a fee of Rs 50 is charged at the Aadhaar center for an Aadhaar update, but according to UIDAI, this service is free till December 14. You can give a voter card as identity proof.
Go to the UIDAI website from a mobile or laptop. After this click on the option of Update Aadhaar. Now login through OTP by entering Aadhaar number.
After this click on document update and verify. Now upload the scanned copy of your identity card and address proof from the drop list below.
Now click on submit. After this you will get a request number and the form will be submitted. You will also be able to check the status of the update from the request number. After a few days, your Aadhaar will be updated.
