a) Age <5 years at the time of initial enrolment – Currently,
all children below the age of 5 years only have their demographic data
recorded
. No biometrics are collected in their case and their identity
is tagged to one of their guardians,
who must have enrolled for Aadhaar.
The child requires to be reenrolled when the child
attains age of 5
years and all biometric data should be provided. A PoA, PoI & DoB
verification mechanism similar to the one followed during enrolment
process
would need to be followed. A de-duplication would be done for
the child at this stage
although the Aadhaar number will remain the
same.
b) Age 5-15 years at the time of enrolment – All residents above
the age of 5 years
are enrolled with their biometrics, but since the
biometrics, especially the fingerprints
undergo some changes, UIDAI
requires all such residents to furnish all biometrics for
updates when
the resident attains age of 15 years.
a) Age >15 years at the time of enrolment – Residents are recommended to
update their Biometric data every 10 years.
b) Events like accidents or diseases leading to biometric exception
c) As the Aadhaar authentication service becomes ubiquitous,
residents may also
approach for biometric updates because of
authentication failures which may result from
incorrect biometric
capture or poor biometric quality captured at the time of enrolment.
With improvements in technology, it may be possible to capture better
quality
biometrics in the CIDR.
