The window for submission of life certificate (Jeevan Pramaan) for senior citizens has opened from 1st October. Although all pensioners can submit life certificate from 1st November to 30th November every year, but to meet the needs of super senior citizens above 80 years, the government has provided a period of two months from 1st October to 30th November for submission of life certificate. Life certificate has to be submitted every year to confirm that the pensioner is alive till that date.

This certificate can be obtained by pensioners from the comfort of their homes, eliminating the need for them to visit banks.
