Pension for retired people is like a added bonus for people in their old-age. Every pensioner between the age of 60 to 80 is mandated to submit Jeevan Pramaan Patra to avail monthly pension. The deadline to submit the Patra for 2023 is November 30, which is the same for super senior pensioner of 80 years.
Failing to submit the Jeevan Pramaan Patra by November 30, the release of the pension would be stopped. However, upon submitting the certificate before October 31 next year, the pension will be restarted along with the amount missed during the time the pension was halted.
There are five ways to submit the life certificate in the country. Pensioners can deposit it through Jeevan Pramaan Portal, post payment bank, face authentication, designated officer signature and doorstep banking.

Jeevan Pramaan is a digital life certificate scheme launched by the Government of India in 2014. The scheme aims to simplify the process of submitting life certificates for pensioners.
Traditionally, pensioners had to submit life certificates in person to a PDA. This could be a time-consuming and inconvenient process, especially for pensioners who live in remote areas or who are unable to travel.
The Jeevan Pramaan scheme allows pensioners to submit their life certificates online, through a mobile app, or at a designated Jeevan Pramaan centre. The scheme uses Aadhaar-based biometric authentication to verify the identity of pensioners.
Apart from digital life certificates, pensioners can also submit their life certificates physically at their respective PDAs, such as banks or post offices. This method involves presenting the original life certificate form, along with supporting documents like Aadhaar card and pension payment order, at the PDA’s counter.
