Aadhar Card Application

Today we went and applied for Aadhar. I thought of sharing the information regarding the process here as it might be of some help to others in the group. 1) LOCATION: Karvy office located close to Image Hospital, Madhapur. You may contact Mukram on 9700286276 for any details. 2) PROCEDURE: Info given: You need to provide a photo ID to get the form. Experience: We got the form just like that. The person just asked how many forms we need. In fact the stack of forms was mostly left unguarded and people were picking up as per their wish. Info given: Every day they issue 50 tokens at 9 am. Experience: We called Mr Mukram on the above mentioned number around 11:30 am and he told that though they issue tokens before 9 am, today rush is less and so we can come today itself. So we went there around 12 or so and we were given token numbers 41 etc. After issuing tokens (which means just writing these numbers on our forms and telling us about these numbers) he told us that we can go for lunch and that he would give us a missed call on the number mentioned in the form about 3 tokens before us. We came back and went again after getting the missed call about 1.5 hours later. They had issue tokens till 54 so they can actually issue more tokens and it does not all happen in the morning in the days with less rush. I guess weekends would be packed though. They do not necessarily call people based on the order of tokens. The person sees people who he thinks came earlier than others and does it that way. I did see people who had later token numbers being sent earlier as they had some urgent work or so. 3) It takes around 10 minutes per person to get the fingerprints etc done. 4) They are quite co-operative in informing about the documents needed: The documents needed are: 1) Proof of Identity (POI): eg., Passport, PAN card, Driving Licence, Voter ID etc 2) Proof of Address (POA): This should have your residing address. e.g., Passport, Voter ID, Electricity Bill etc. In case of kids below 5 years we need father's address proof 3) Proof of Birth (POB): SSC certificate, Birth Certificate, Passport 4) Proof of relationship (POR): Passport (with spouse name mentioned), Marriage Certificate 5) We do not need to take any photos 6) They do not do the fingerprint and retina scan for kids less than 5 years of age I guess as it was not done for my 3 year old kid. 7) There are no charges. 8) They will give you a receipt after the process is over and the Aadhar will be delivered later by post to your address given in the application.
