What should i do in this case. Because changing all documents will take time. Will it effect me later if i don't change. Please guide
If your aadhar card has an incorrect spelling of your father's name, you can get it corrected and the time extended for making corrections in the aadhar card is for another 3 months.
The PAN card also can be corrected subsequently
The name given in the bank account and the post office account need not be changed for now, you can get it corrected when you are opening a new account in future.
Your educational certificates have the proper name hence you need not be worried on that count too.
It is minor typographical error
it should not create any problems
If possible your father can apply for correction of name in his Aadhaar records, based on documentary evidence. Otherwise, you need not worry unnecessarily, as all other records have his correct name.
Dear Sir, The document of my father are correct. There is mistake in my (son) Aadhar card which led to mistake in PAN card and other documents. I do not have a base in correcting my father Aadhar card as it is correct. Request to kindly read my query again.
I reiterate it is minor typographical error
Your father name Natverlal has been spelt as Natvarlal in your documents and it should not create any legal problems for you
Dear Client,
First, you should start the corrections by editing the Aadhar card, which is the basic card attached to other records as well. To correct a spelling, the following steps need to be followed, which include completing a name correction application online through the UIDAI website or going to an Aadhar enrollment centre to fill out the same with appropriate official documents, for example, passports and school marksheets that have the right spelling.
The sequence of ID proof, PAN card, driving licence, bank accounts, bank post office, mutual fund investments, and income tax returns should be followed immediately after updating the Aadhar card. Every institution has its own process of changing names, and the name correction process often entails the use of a properly filled-out name correction form, identity proof reflecting the new name, and, in some cases, a copy of the new Aadhar card.
However, this might take much time; though, it ensures consistency concerning competitors’ actions and legal issues. It is essential to have updated documents because they support various activities, such as financial business operations, work with taxes, travel, and legal situations.
Your aadhar card was the one having the spelling mistake of your father, now you can make changes in the aadhar card at free of cost and get the mistake rectified. This facility has been extended for another three months.
You need to change it in all documents or execute an notarised affidavit. Change through gazette notification only valid if you want to change your name or original name was incorrect
- Such mistakes are minor typographical error , and it will not create any trouble
- However, you can corrected the said mistake after submitting an application supporting with your passport & fathers any documents copy before the competent authority who has issued the said documents.
