The UIDAI’s Check Aadhar Card Status or Check My Aadhar Card Update Status lets you track the real-time status of your service request. But the process of tracking the Aadhaar status for various types of Aadhaar requests are not the same. As per the type of your request, below are the methods to check Aadhaar Status.

Check Aadhar Card Status for New Enrolment or Update done at Enrolment Center

If you have enrolled for (Aadarkard) Aadhaar or Updated your Aadhaar through Seva Kendra then you can find out the status of your request with the Aadhar Card Status Check Online facility tool.

Once getting enrolled for Aadhaar, usually, the Aadhaar gets generated in 1 to 3 months, but in the rare case, it could take more time than estimated or it could even complete before the estimated time.

Similarly, any Aadhaar update request done through Aadhaar Kendra or IPPB or Online can take a timeline of up to 1 – 3 months to get processed.

So to be informed about the Aadhaar issuance process or update, Check Aadhaar Status Online service or Check Aadhaar Update Status has been enabled on the official UIDAI Aadhaar Card Portal.

By using Check Aadhaar Card Status Service from the UIDAI Official Website, residents who have enrolled for Aadhaar or Updated Aadhaar through Seva Kendra can find out whether their Aadhaar is generated or still under process or updated.

But before proceeding further for checking the Aadhaar Status Online you should have your EID which will be printed on your Aadhaar acknowledgment slip/ resident copy which you were provided once enrolling for Aadhaar or Aadhaar Update receipt in case of update.

To check Aadhaar Status visit the official UIDAI website https://uidai.gov.in/

Language Selection

Select the preferred language from the list to enter the website

Once you reach on the UIDAI homepage, just click on the Check Aadhaar Status under get Aadhaar section

On the Check Aadhaar Status page, you will need to fill the fields in the form such as 14 digits Enrollment ID (ENO) which you will find on top of your acknowledgment slip or resident copy, and then mention the date and time as per the acknowledgment slip (date and time is not mandatory to mention). These 28 digits together form your temporary enrollment ID (EID)

You can even enter SRN or URN in place of entering the enrollment id, if you are checking status of the update

Once entering the EID or SRN ot URN, solve the captcha verification code as displayed in the image and click on the Check Status button

If your Aadhaar has been generated then you will get to see the message “Congratulations! Your Aadhaar is Generated” as you can see in the above image and similarly if your Aadhaar has been updated then it will show your Aadhaar has been updated.

If you had tried to enroll as fresh even though having Aadhaar then you will get to see the status “This enrolment has been rejected AS duplicate. Please DO NOT REENROL AND USE your matching enrolment number displayed below TO CHECK your Aadhaar Status. In case the matching enrolment number IS NOT displayed below, you may USE “Retrieve Lost EID/UID” service ON our website OR CALL 1947 FOR more details.”

  1. I have enrolled for Aadhaar on 29-12-2017. However whenever I check with the enrollment no it shows “in process”. When will I get my Aadhaar no.
    On the other hand my NSC has matured but the post office refuses to let me encash it without Aadhaar card though I have my PAN card they refuse to accept PAN card. I need money for my medicines. What am I expected to do ?

    • Hello Ritcha,

      Aadhaar Application Process may take upto 2 to 3 months to issue you 12 digit Aadhaar Number and once you get issued with Aadhaar Number, your Aadhaar Card will be sent to you through India Post which will take few more days. So if you are in urgent need just try to show your Aadhaar Enrolment Receipt to NSC for en-cashing your investment.
