EPFO Alert: Employee Provident Fund Organization has taken a big decision regarding pensioners. EPFO said that if someone gets the benefit of EPS i.e. Employee Pension Scheme, then the date of submission of life certificate for him is not ending on 30 November.
As we know, the last date for submission of Life Certificate is ending on 30th November. If it is not deposited by this date, then the pension may stop. However, this rule does not apply to the beneficiaries of the Employee Pension Scheme. Its information has been tweeted by EPFO itself. It has been said in this tweet that for those who get EPS pension, the deadline for submission of life certificate is not 30 November. Pensioners can now submit life certificate at any time of the year.
Life certificate validity now 1 year
EPS pensioners can now submit life certificate at any time of the year, whose validity will be for 1 year from the date of submission. For example, if a pensioner submits a life certificate today, its deadline will end on November 17, 2023. During this, he can submit the life certificate again at any time. The deadline for submission of life certificate for other pensioners ends on 30 November every year.
