Aadhaar Card – Enrolment, Download, Status, UIDAI Services

There are certain points you must keep in mind while applying for an Aadhaar card:

• Always Use Uppercase Letters in the Form:
  Fill in your new Aadhaar card form in uppercase letters. It will help in efficiently recognizing the details. It will also reduce the possibility of errors while storing data in the system.
  
  

• Keep Your Form Clean:
  Overwriting and other marks should be avoided. Maintain a clean form by writing each detail tidily. If the handwriting is unreadable, there is a risk of inconsistencies on the card.
  
  

• Follow the Instructions:
  Follow the steps outlined in the instructions when filling out the form. Any inaccuracy can result in the form being rejected.
  
  

• Submit the Supporting Documents :
  Check the list of documents asked by UIDAI along with the new Aadhaar card form and provide the same accordingly.

There are several fields on an Aadhaar card form, some of which are listed below:

• Full Name:
   You are required to write your full name in this section. Don’t make any spelling mistakes as it will be written in the same way on your card.
  
  

• Gender:
   Choose your gender among the options.
  
  

• Date of Birth:
   Enter your DOB in DD/MM/YYYY format. If you don’t have proof of your date of birth, pick ‘Declared’ alternative. If you have any relevant documentation, choose the ‘Verified’ option.
  
  

• Contact Number & Email Id:
  Give your active mobile number and email as both will be linked to your Aadhaar card.
  
  

• Address:
  Mention your residential address carefully since it will be used for the delivery of your card.
  
  

• Father’s/Spouse Name:
   If you are unmarried, provide your father’s name. In the case of a married person, the spouse’s name should be written.
  
  

• Signature/Thumb Impression:
   Provide your signature/thumb impression in the designated column of the Aadhaar application form.
