For those aged below 80, a life certificate can be submitted between November 1 and 30. And for super senior citizens (aged 80 and above), the Department of Pension and Pensioners' Welfare has allowed them to submit life certificates from October 1 instead of November 1.
The deadline remains the same - November 30. The Centre had in 2019 asked banks to allow senior pensioners aged 80 and above to give their life certificates with effect from October 1 every year instead of November.
The remaining pensioners below the age of 80 years have to give their life certificate in November. If you miss the deadline, pension disbursal will be stopped from next month onwards but will be resumed after you submit your life certificate.
