November is a significant time for retired individuals. During this month, they must provide their yearly life certificate (Jeevan Pramaan Patra).
The government has chosen the dates for this between November 1 and November 30, 2023.
But elderly people over 80 years old can provide their Jeevan Pramaan from October 1 to November 30, 2023.
Submit life certificate through face authentication
Retired individuals can give their life certificate at the bank or post office. But if you can’t go to the bank, you can also do it from home.
The government is helping older people by letting them provide their life certificate through face recognition.
As per the details shared on a social media platform like Twitter, you can easily give your life certificate through face recognition by following just 6 simple steps.
Why is submitting the life certificate necessary?
For millions of pensioners under both the Central Government and State Government throughout the country, it is mandatory to submit a life certificate once every year in November.
Failing to do so means the pension payments will be halted from December until the life certificate is submitted.
The government employs the life certificate to verify whether the pensioner is alive or not.
