Aadhaar-Linking Deadlines: Ensure You Link Your Aadhar Card

Deadline for linking Aadhaar with PAN is December 31, 2017
The government has made it mandatory to link Aadhaar cards with bank accounts, permanent account numbers (PAN), income tax return (ITR), social security schemes and even mobile phones. If one does not have the 12-digit Unique Identification Number issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India, he will have to now get it made in order to avail all these facilities. In fact, the government recently extended the deadline for obtaining Aadhaar for availing government schemes and subsidies by three months to December 31. The extension is, however, only for those who are yet to apply for Aadhaar, an order issued by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology said. As many as 135 schemes (of 35 ministries) including the free cooking gas (LPG) to poor women, kerosene and fertilizer subsidy, targeted public distribution system and Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) will be covered by the extension.
Be it linking of Aadhaar card with PAN, mobile SIM cards or bank accounts, there are different deadlines specified in each case. Read Further:
Last day for linking Aadhaar with mobile SIMs is February 6, 2018 
Supreme Court decides to stop sim cards running on fake identities, now it is mandatory to link aadhaar card with mobile number i.e SIM Card through bio-metric verification to keep it active. If you don’t link your sim card with your Aadhar card then your number is going to disconnected very soon. So if you don’t want to loose your mobile number then make sure that you link your sim [Airtel, Idea, Vodafone Any] with Aadhar before last date.
In case, you have purchased sim card with biometric verification then you don’t have to go through this verification process. The linking process is very simple and free of cost and can be done at any retailer shop. Also you don’t have to give your id card photocopy or photographs to retailer as this process is based on biometric verification which gets completed online so all you need a aadhaar card, sim card along with owner of aadhaar card as this process includes biometric verification so you will have to verify your fingerprints at retailer shop so your linkage can be authenticated. Read Further:

The talk of the town and many places are about a new scheme going hot on whatsapp circulation, it is not about “Sukanya Samriddhi Account”, and it is about making money or a kind of investment to the expectations of people who are looking to make easy money. The scheme about parents having a daughter who is below 10 years, they need to open an account in her name by paying Rs. 1000 for the first time and has to pay Rs. 100 every month till she completes the age of 21 will get Rs. 6,50,000 for her marriage. How it is possible? Even one who opens an account for his or her infant baby and pays that monthly Rs. 100 at the age of 21, with interest it will come to Rs. 40,000 or so, but how come the amount jump to Rs. 6,50,000 seems a fake message in the name of “Selva Maghal Thirumana Thittam” (Disclaimer: Please, check for such a scheme).
If you google and do a search for “Selva Maghal Thirumana Thittam”, you will find a lot of marriage halls in Tamil Nadu but not the information about scheme.

Partial withdrawal up to 50 per cent of the account balance is allowed to meet education expenses of the girl child till she attains 18 years of age. The account will remain operative for 21 years from the date of opening of the account or till marriage of the girl child.
