How long does it take to generate Aadhaar after enrollment?

Typically, Aadhaar generation takes 60-90 days from the date of enrollment. However, in some cases, it may take longer. You can check the status online using your Enrollment ID to track the progress.

What is an Enrollment ID (EID)?

Enrollment ID (EID) is a 14-digit or 28-digit number provided to you at the time of Aadhaar enrollment. It's printed on the acknowledgment slip you receive after enrollment. The format is typically 1234/12345/12345 for 14-digit or longer format for 28-digit.

Can I check status without Enrollment ID?

If you have already received your Aadhaar number, you can check the status using your 12-digit Aadhaar number. However, if you're checking for the first time after enrollment, you'll need the Enrollment ID from your acknowledgment slip.

What does 'Aadhaar Generated' status mean?

When the status shows 'Aadhaar Generated', it means your Aadhaar card has been successfully created and your 12-digit Aadhaar number has been assigned. You can now download your e-Aadhaar from the UIDAI website.

What should I do if status shows 'On Hold' or 'Rejected'?

If your status shows 'On Hold' or 'Rejected', visit the nearest Aadhaar Enrollment Center with your original documents. The officials will help you understand the issue and guide you through the re-enrollment or correction process.

Is there a mobile number required to check status?

No, you don't need a mobile number to check the Aadhaar status. You only need your Enrollment ID (14 or 28 digits) or Aadhaar number (12 digits) to check the status online.

What is Aadhaar Status Check?

Aadhaar Status Check is an online service provided by UIDAI that allows you to track the progress of your Aadhaar enrollment or update request. After you complete your Aadhaar enrollment at an enrollment center, you receive an acknowledgment slip with a unique Enrollment ID (EID). Using this EID, you can check whether your Aadhaar has been generated and is ready for download.

The status check service helps you know if your Aadhaar card is ready, if it's still being processed, or if there are any issues that need your attention. Once the status shows as "Generated", you can immediately download your e-Aadhaar from the UIDAI portal.

Important: Keep your Enrollment ID acknowledgment slip safe until you receive your Aadhaar number. It's the only way to track your application status before your Aadhaar is generated.

Step 1: Visit UIDAI Status Check Page

Go to the official UIDAI website at myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in/CheckAadhaarStatus. This is the official portal to check your Aadhaar status.

Make sure you have your Enrollment ID ready. It's a 14-digit or 28-digit number printed on your acknowledgment slip that you received during enrollment.

Step 2: Enter Your Enrollment ID

Enter your 14-digit or 28-digit Enrollment ID (EID) in the provided field. The Enrollment ID is printed on your acknowledgment slip in the format 1234/12345/12345 (for 14-digit) or a longer format for 28-digit.

Enter the date and time of enrollment as mentioned on your acknowledgment slip. This helps the system verify and retrieve your specific enrollment record.

The system will process your request and display your current Aadhaar status. You'll see if your Aadhaar has been generated, is under process, or if there are any issues.

Step 4: View Status and Download e-Aadhaar

Once you check the status, you'll see one of the following messages:

Aadhaar Generated: Your Aadhaar is ready and you can download e-Aadhaar
Under Process: Your application is being processed, check back later
On Hold: There's an issue that needs attention, visit enrollment center
Rejected: Application rejected, visit enrollment center for re-enrollment

Success! If your status shows "Aadhaar Generated", you can immediately download your e-Aadhaar from the UIDAI website using your Aadhaar number or Enrollment ID.

Check Status Using Aadhaar Number

If you already have your 12-digit Aadhaar number, you can also check the status of any recent update requests using your Aadhaar number instead of the Enrollment ID.

Steps to Check Using Aadhaar Number:

Visit the UIDAI status check page
Select "Aadhaar Number" option instead of Enrollment ID
Enter your 12-digit Aadhaar number
Enter the captcha code
Click "Check Status" to view your update request status

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Status Shows "Under Process" for Long Time

If your status shows "Under Process" for more than 90 days, contact the UIDAI helpline at 1947 or visit your nearest Aadhaar enrollment center with your acknowledgment slip. They can help you understand the delay and expedite the process if needed.

Invalid Enrollment ID Error

Double-check that you've entered the Enrollment ID correctly with all digits and slashes. Ensure the date and time of enrollment match exactly with your acknowledgment slip. If the issue persists, visit the enrollment center where you applied.

Lost Acknowledgment Slip

If you've lost your acknowledgment slip with the Enrollment ID, visit the same Aadhaar enrollment center where you enrolled. Carry a valid ID proof and they may be able to retrieve your Enrollment ID from their records.
