 "Pension")
Every year, pensioners must submit a life certificate, also known as Jeevan Pramaan Patra, to continue receiving their pension without interruption. To make this process easier, especially for elderly pensioners, the government allows submission through doorstep banking and India Post Payment Bank (IPPB) services.
What is Jeevan Pramaan?
Introduced in November 2014, Jeevan Pramaan is a digital life certificate system that uses Aadhaar-based authentication. It eliminates the need for physical presence at the bank or pension office, allowing pensioners to generate and submit their life certificate from home.
Doorstep banking for senior citizens
Senior citizens can now use PSB Alliance Doorstep Banking Services, a common platform for all public sector banks, to submit their digital life certificate (DLC) from home. The service is also available via India Post Payments Bank (IPPB) for both IPPB and non-IPPB customers.
To request a doorstep visit, pensioners can:
Contact the nearest post office, or
