Every citizen of India has to get xerox copies of their Aadhar cards as the document is of immense utility. The card is required for easy withdrawls in banks, transfers and other detailed governemt services. In case there is an unmatchable informaiton inconsistency in the card like when a married woman's surname is mentioned on her Aadhar followed by her new husband's surname, it becomes increasingly difficult to update critical documents like PAN cards, voter id's as well as bank accounts. Therefore it is crucial to make changes and update the surname in Aadhar cards post marriage.
What is the importance of an Aadhar card
Having an Aadhar card whose surname has not been updated post marriage can be termed as unlucky as due to this simple reason there are numerous discrepancies across a large multitude of important services ranging from access to government a persons identity. The task becomes cumbersome without unified documents and would need matching surname tags on each of the necessary documentation.
Necessary Aadhar documents needed for a Son or Daughter Surname Change
The major reason for refurbishment of the Aadhar card is lack of acceptable verifiable username eligibility documents which show a marriage certificate and are willing to unequivocally confirm the change post marriage.
Apart from these, there exist several contacted documents that are far more reliable than these:
Wifes passport Recommendation.
Wifes PAN card.
Printed bank statement and passbook.
