Good news for pensioners. If you are worried about your pension, then today’s article is for you. If you are a pensioner and have not been able to submit the life certificate by November 30, then there is no need to panic. Pension payments may be delayed, but there are still some steps you can take to get your pension back. Know in detail.
How to submit a life certificate?
If you have not submitted the life certificate on time, first of all, try to submit it as soon as possible. Pensioners have the facility to deposit it at banks, post offices, or Common Service Centres (CSCs) to provide relief, and many banks accept it even after November 30.
Digital & Offline Mode
Digital submission: You can submit your life certificate online using the Jeevan Pramaan app or portal. This will require a biometric device, which is available at your home, so this method is very convenient.
Offline Submission: If you are unable to submit the Life Certificate digitally, you can submit it offline at the nearest pension disbursing branch. Also, don’t forget to bring your pension details along.
Check Pension Status
The reason for the delay in pension payment could be the non-submission of the life certificate. If your pension is delayed, first check your bank account. If the problem persists, contact the Pension Disbursing Authority and clarify the situation.
Contact the Pension Disbursing Authority
If your pension has been discontinued, immediately contact your pension disbursing bank or authority. In most cases, even if the life certificate is not submitted, the pension is resumed after verification by the authorities.
Use Doorstep Banking Service
If you are unable to go to the bank due to health reasons or difficulty in walking, then use the doorstep banking service of government banks. In this service, biometric authentication and life certificates are provided at your home.
