Jeevan Pramaan Patra: Pensioners can submit life certificate online by Nov 30


It is time for pensioners to submit their annual life certificate or Jeevan Pramaan Patra. Like the past couple of years, they can submit their life certificate online this time, too, within November 30.

For pensioners aged above 80, the window for submitting the life certificate opened on October 1. Many have already done so. Those who haven’t have the provision to submit their life certificate online by November 30. For those below 80, the window opened on November 1.

According to the Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO), a pensioner does not need to submit his/her life certificate in November 2022 if they have already done it in December 2021 or started receiving their pension less than a year ago.
