Pensioners are advised to submit their life certificate annually by November 30 to authorised pension disbursing agencies, such as banks and post offices. As the deadline has not been extended by the government, pensioners are advised to review the details on how to check their status, and submit the certificate online.

If you miss the deadline for submitting your life certificate by November 30, your pension may be suspended and the money will only be released once the certificate arrives at the Central Pension Processing Centres.

What To Do?

The life certificate requires the PPO Number, Aadhaar, bank account details, and Aadhaar-linked mobile number. It can be submitted in person, online, or through doorstep banking. The certificate’s validity is one year from the last submission date.
