A similar number belongs to the state, UT, and other government agencies. In order to receive the pension from pension disbursing agencies, it is a requisite for the pensioner to obtain a Jeevan Pramaan life certificate. In the absence of the Jeevan Pramaan certificate, they might not be eligible to receive the pension from the disbursing agencies. The disbursing agencies, which grant the pensions to credit the pension in the pensioner's account, are banks, post offices, etc.

Jeevan Pramaan Life Certificate for Pensioners

In order to claim pension post-retirement, the beneficiaries are required to furnish their life certificate before an authorized agency disburses the pension. Therefore, the pensioners were required to be physically present before the pension disbursing agency in order to get a life certificate issued by them. However, the requirement of being present physically was a significant hurdle for the beneficiaries. 

It was taken into account that being physically present before the agency might cause hardship and inconvenience to the aged people. An elderly adult cannot always be in a position to visit the offices or present before the appropriate authority in order to secure the certificate. 

Additionally, after retirement, various government employees changed their residences and moved to other places to live with their families. Hence, they may face logistic issues in order to access the pension. In addition, they might not present physically before the authorities. Therefore, this issue needs to be raised and addressed by the government.

Let us understand the benefits of a digital life certificate online.

    Getting a digital life certificate or Jeevan Pramaan Patra has become hassle-free. One may simply visit the official website of the government in order to claim the certification.

  3. Notification

    The pensioner may get a notification via SMS upon the successful generation of the Jeevan Pramaan life certificate.

How does the Whole Process Work?

Listed below are the steps one may follow to get the digital life certificate.

  1. Life Certificate Generation

    One may download the mobile or PC application or visit the center of Jeevan Pramaan to register for the life certificate. In addition, the individual must provide essential information such as pension payment order, bank name, mobile number, bank account, and Aadhaar number.

  2. Aadhaar Authentication

    In the next step, the beneficiary is required to provide the biometric, either the iris or finger point, for the authentication process. 

  3. Life Certificate Online
