Uttarakhand Devbhoomi Parivar Yojana: One Family ID for Every Government Scheme

What the Devbhoomi Parivar ID is, who can get it, the documents you need, and how to register when the portal opens on 9 November 2026.

Anyone who has applied for a government scheme knows the routine: the same Aadhaar copies, the same family details, the same forms, again and again. Uttarakhand’s new Devbhoomi Parivar Yojana aims to end that. It creates one verified digital record for each family and gives it a unique 8-digit Devbhoomi Parivar ID (DP ID). This post explains how the system works and how to prepare for registration.

What Is the Devbhoomi Parivar Yojana?

The Uttarakhand Government launched the scheme under the Uttarakhand Devbhoomi Parivar Act, 2026. Its purpose is to build a unified digital family database so that welfare schemes and public services reach the right people with less paperwork. Through the Devbhoomi Parivar Portal, eligible families can get a DP ID that works as a common family identification number across government services.

The model is similar to family ID systems in other states, such as Uttar Pradesh’s Family ID (Ek Parivar Ek Pahchan), Haryana’s Parivar Pehchan Patra, and Rajasthan’s Jan Aadhaar.

• Cleaner records. A central database helps departments verify beneficiaries, remove duplicates, and deliver benefits more efficiently.

Check Your Scheme Eligibility Without Registering

One handy feature is the scheme eligibility checker, which you can use without registering or logging in. It suggests Uttarakhand government schemes you may qualify for, based on basic details.

1. Visit the official Devbhoomi Parivar Portal and open the scheme eligibility checker.
2. Select your gender and enter your date of birth.
3. Select your marital status, caste category, disability (Divyang) status, and Uttarakhand domicile.
4. Choose the relevant scheme type.
5. Enter your educational qualification, occupation, and annual income.
6. Select your BPL status.
7. Click Find Eligible Schemes.
8. Read the eligibility conditions of each scheme shown before you apply.

Keep in mind that the checker only gives suggestions. Meeting the displayed conditions does not guarantee approval, because the concerned department will verify your application and documents under that scheme’s own guidelines.

Who Is Eligible for a DP ID?

• The applicant or family must be a resident of Uttarakhand. Under the Act, a person or family that has lived continuously in the state for 15 years or more is treated as a resident.
• Families in both rural and urban areas can apply.
• Permanent officers and employees of the Uttarakhand Government, government agencies, and local authorities, along with their families, are eligible regardless of the 15-year condition, subject to the Act.
• Government employees posted outside Uttarakhand on official duty or deputation, and their families, continue to be treated as residents.
• Temporary residence, education, employment, or a short-term posting in Uttarakhand does not, on its own, make a person eligible.
• The senior-most woman in the family aged 18 or above is ordinarily recorded as the Head of Family (HOF).
• Applicants must give the details the Devbhoomi Parivar Authority asks for, including Aadhaar details for e-KYC, proof of linkage or residence, and family information such as category, occupation, education, and average annual family income.
