Similarly, those pensioners who have already made the digital submission for the previous year, need not do so again for the current year.
They would have the option of submitting the digital or paper-based certificate to pension drawing bank branches.
The new conditions provide that those who have not submitted Jeevan Pramaan digitally even once, can do so within this month.
The facility of submitting Jeevan Pramaan is available at all EPFO offices, pension disbursing banks and common service centres.
