A Life Certificate is a document that proves that the pensioner is alive. Previously, it had to be submitted in physical form, but now the government has made it completely digital.

The government has announced major relief for millions of pensioners across the country. Previously, pensioners had to visit a bank or government office every year to submit their Life Certificate. Now, this can be done digitally from the comfort of their homes, using their mobile phones. A Life Certificate is a document that proves that the pensioner is alive. Previously, it had to be submitted in physical form, but now the government has made it completely digital.

This digital form is called the Digital Life Certificate, which can be generated online through the Jeevan Pramaan App. The Union Minister recently launched the Digital Life Certificate Campaign 4.0. The aim of this campaign is to provide this digital facility to more than 20 million pensioners across the country. This campaign is being run in more than 2,000 cities across the country so that elderly, disabled, and pensioners living in remote areas do not need to visit banks or government offices. Let's learn how to obtain a life certificate online.

Special Facility for Elderly and Disabled Pensioners

The government has launched a doorstep service for senior citizens above 80 years of age and disabled pensioners. Bank, post office employees, or India Post Payments Bank (IPPB) agents will come to your home and generate your digital life certificate. This will save the elderly the hassle of standing in line, and their pension will be credited to their account on time.

The Employees' Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has also simplified this process for its pensioners. Now, EPFO ​​members can submit their digital life certificate directly by scanning their face on their mobile phone. This facility is especially useful for those who are unable to leave their homes due to health or age.
