Pensioners alert! The deadline for submitting life certificates is near, so hurry!
Life Certificate: Pensioners have only one day left to submit their life certificate, as the deadline is November 30, 2025. Missing this deadline may lead to the temporary stoppage of pension payments, so it is important to complete the process immediately—either online or through an offline method.
As of November 29, 2025, this is a critical reminder for millions of pensioners nationwide. With just a day remaining to file the Life Certificate (Jeevan Pramaan Patra), failing to do so could result in pensions being put on hold.
Why is a Life Certificate required?
Pensioners are asked to submit this document each year to confirm that they are alive and that the pension is being credited to the correct individual. While this used to require visiting a bank or post office, digital submission options are now also available.
How to submit?
– Online option: Pensioners can generate an Aadhaar-based digital certificate through the Jeevan Pramaan App or website.
– Offline option: The certificate can be submitted with biometric verification at the nearest bank branch, post office, or Common Service Center (CSC).

– Home convenience: Some banks and CSC centers also offer this service at home, especially for senior citizens.
For example, 72-year-old Rameshwar Prasad from Lucknow says that last year, when he went to the bank on the last day, he had to stand in a long queue. This time, he generated the digital certificate from the CSC center, and the process was completed in a few minutes. He says that acting on time can help avoid hassles.
Why not wait until the last minute?
– Crowds increase at banks and CSC centers during the final days.
– Technical problems or slow servers can cause delays.
– Delays can result in pension payments being held up, leading to financial difficulties.
For pensioners, this isn’t just a formality, but the foundation of their monthly income. Submitting your life certificate on time is crucial. Using digital options can help you avoid the crowds and hassle. Remember, there’s only one day left; complete this process today to ensure you continue receiving your pension without interruption.
