How to Link Your Mobile Number with Aadhaar from Home in 2024: A Step-by-Step Guide
If your mobile number is not linked to your Aadhaar card and you want to complete this process from the comfort of your home, this guide is for you. You can now link your mobile number to your Aadhaar card by paying just ₹50 using your mobile phone, and it only takes about 2 minutes. No need to visit an Aadhaar center or book an appointment!
Let’s dive into the process with this simple, step-by-step guide.
Step 1: Open Your Browser
To start the process, open any browser on your mobile phone or laptop. Note that you can complete the entire process using your mobile phone, but using a laptop might help you see everything more clearly.
Step 2: Search for Indian Post Payment
In the browser, search for “Indian Post Payment.” Make sure to click on the first link that appears, which should be the official website of Indian Post Payment. Beware of fake websites; the correct link can be found in the description box of the original video.
Step 3: Enable Desktop Mode
Once the website loads, enable desktop mode on your mobile browser. This will allow you to see all the options clearly. After enabling desktop mode, you will notice some new options.
Step 4: Select Service Request
Look for the option labeled “Service Request” and click on it. Make sure your mobile phone is in landscape mode (like when watching videos) to ensure everything is displayed properly.
Step 5: Choose the Correct Option
You will now see two options: “IPPV Customer” and “Non-IPPV Customer.” Select “IPPV Customer.” After a brief loading period, you will see a form titled “Door Step Banking Service Request Form.”
Step 6: Aadhaar Mobile Update
In the form, you will notice two new services have been added: “Aadhaar Mobile Update” and “Child Aadhaar Enrollment.” To link your mobile number to your Aadhaar card, select “Aadhaar Mobile Update.”
Step 7: Fill in Your Details
You will need to fill in the following details:
- Salutation: Select Mr., Mrs., etc.
- First Name: Enter your first name (e.g., Arif).
- Last Name: Enter your last name (e.g., Khan).
- Mobile Number: Enter the mobile number you want to link to your Aadhaar card.
Step 8: Enter Your Address
This is a crucial step. Enter the address where you currently reside and can receive service, not necessarily the permanent address on your Aadhaar card. This is where the post office agent will visit to link your mobile number to your Aadhaar card.
Fill in the address line with your current address, including the nearest post office and the correct pin code. If the nearest post office option doesn’t appear, try slightly modifying the address or pin code. If it still doesn’t appear, the service may not be available in your area.
Step 9: Specific Request
In the “Specific Request” section, simply type “Aadhaar Mobile Update” and click “Agree.” Then, fill in the captcha and click “Submit.”
Step 10: Confirmation
Once you submit the form, you will see a confirmation message. Within 7-10 days, a post office agent will visit the address you provided and link your mobile number to your Aadhaar card. You don’t need to go anywhere—the entire process will be completed at your home.
