For senior citizens, the biggest problem is to be personally present in the bank and to get the life certificate to get the pension.
Digital Life Certificate: Pension is an important source of income for senior citizens after retirement. You have to submit your life certificate in your bank on a stipulated time for the pension to be available continuously without any interruption. If you are not able to deposit your life certificate in the bank within the stipulated time, then the pension received every month can be stopped.
To get the life certificate, the pensioner has to be present in the bank or submit the life certificate issued by the officer of the office where he used to work in the bank.
