Life certificate: Those who have submitted their life certificates, it is important for them to check their status to know whether the certificate has been submitted or not.
It is mandatory for pensioners to submit their ‘Jeevan Pramaan Patra’ or life certificate to their pension-disbursing authorities (PDAs) including banks and post offices in November. If pensioners want their pension to continue arriving without any hassle, it is important for them to submit the life certificate on time. Pensioners have two options to submit their life certificate. They can either visit their pension-disbursing authorities in person or submit it online. Life certificate is valid for 12 months from the date of submission. Those who have submitted their life certificates, it is important for them to check their status to know whether the certificate has been submitted or not.
How to check life certificate status
After successful submission of Digital Life Certificate, users will receive an SMS on the registered mobile number. This SMS will include life certificate ID details. After completion of the process, pensioners can also find the proof ID on the screen. After the ID is generated, users can download the Digital Life Certificate (DLC) by visiting the official website https://jeevanpramaan.gov.in/ppouser/login.
Why can it be rejected?
It is worth noting that if incorrect details are given during the DLC generation process, the life certificate may be rejected. To correct this, it has been asked to prepare a new life proof by ensuring that all the information and biometrics are accurate.
What to do
If the problem is still not resolved then pensioners can contact the pension disbursing agency. Importantly, pensioners are not required to submit DLC to the bank, post office or PDA. The certificate will automatically become available to them electronically.
In case of any problem like non-generation of DLC or rejection by PDA, pensioners can lodge a complaint with the concerned PDA. Apart from this, for service related issues from India Post Payments Bank (IPPB) or banks, they can get detailed instructions and contact information on the respective websites.
