New Delhi: The Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) will allow pensioners to submit their digital Pramaan Patra at any time during the year as per their convenience and not just during the months of November & December. The life certificate will remain valid for one year from the date of submission.
For example, The Digital Life Certificate submitted in November/ December 2019 is valid for release of monthly pension for one year i.e up to November / December 2020, respectively. This pro -pensioner step has been taken to provide hassle-free social security cover to EPS pensioners, said the Ministry of Labour & Employment under which EPFO falls.
EPFO has partnered with Common Service Centre( CSC) to provide facilities to submit Digital Jeevan Pramaan Patra. Further post offices have also started collection of the document. A multi-agency model adopted by EPFO empowers EPS pensioners with choice and autonomy to select the service delivery agency as per their convenience.
The Ministry in a statement said, “EPS pensioners are hereby requested to avoid visiting PF Offices and instead submit Aadhar based Biometric Digital Life Certificate for Jeevan Pramaan Patra at respective bank branches, nearest Post Offices or at Common Service Centers, for details about nearest Common Service Centre use link https://locator.esecloud.in”.
