What to do when a payment is missing

  1. Check application, approval and payment status separately on the scheme portal. Note your application number and error message.
  2. Match your name, Aadhaar, bank account and scheme records. For PM-KISAN, also check e-KYC and land verification.
  3. Ask the bank to confirm an active account, KYC and NPCI mapping for Aadhaar-based payments. Linking Aadhaar at the bank and mapping it with NPCI are separate steps.
  4. Keep a complaint receipt or reference number. Report banking issues to the bank and application issues to the responsible department.

Aadhaar bank-seeding status · Read the NPCI process

A short checklist before applying

Keep identity evidence, an available mobile number, your passbook and relevant certificates ready. Farming may require land records; education may need admission records and marksheets; family support may need birth or death certificates. Each scheme has its own full checklist.

At a service centre, collect a printed application, reference number and fee receipt. Enter OTPs yourself and keep Aadhaar and bank documents out of public messages.
