Before payment, simply delete the unpaid return and upload a corrected one. After payment, short payments are made good with a supplementary return for the same wage month; wrong credits (wrong UAN, wrong month, excess) need a correction request to the regional office with the TRRN, payroll and bank proof.

Not yet paid

Delete the return against the unpaid TRRN on the employer portal and upload again.

Paid, but too little

File a supplementary return for the same wage month for the shortfall and pay; interest and damages run on the late part.

Paid to the wrong member or month, or too much

Write to the regional office with the TRRN, the correct details and proof. Don't try to offset it in next month's ECR.

  1. Identify the TRRN and the error
  2. Delete, file supplementary, or request correction
  3. Members' accounts corrected
