Life Certificate For Pensioners Online: More than 1.8 lakh pensioners generated their digital life certificates (DLC) on the very first day, even as the government rolled out the largest-ever campaign, the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions said. 

The Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare on Friday launched the third and the largest nationwide DLC campaign in 800 cities or districts across India from November 1-30. 

The authentication is carried out against UIDAI’s Aadhaar database using UIDAI’s Face Recognition Application. In June, the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) noted a more than threefold jump in the number of EPS pensioners submitting Facial Authentication Technology-based Digital Life Certificates – from 2.1 lakh in 2022-23 to 6.6 lakh in 2023-24. 

Life Certificate Submission Deadline Date

Life certificates can be submitted between November 1 and 30 for those under 80 years old. Super senior citizens (aged 80 and above) have been allowed to submit their life certificates starting October 1, with the same deadline of November 30.  

Ways To Submit Life Certificate

Pensioners and family pensioners have multiple options to submit their life certificates to ensure the continuous disbursement of pensions. They can conveniently use the Jeevan Pramaan Portal, a digital platform designed for online certificate submission, or opt for the Doorstep Banking (DSB) Agent service, which brings the process to their home. 

Adding further, pensioners can visit post offices equipped with biometric devices for on-the-spot verification. For those who prefer traditional methods, physical life certificate forms can be submitted directly at bank branches.

Aadhar Card Money Withdrawal: In today’s competitive world, digital transactions have become an integral part of everyday life in India, whether it’s paying bills, shopping, or making payments at local stores. However, cash remains vital in certain situations, especially in rural areas or where digital access is limited, making it essential to know easy ways to withdraw cash when needed.

Traditionally, people withdrew money from banks or ATMs, but now there’s a more convenient option: cash withdrawal using an Aadhaar card. This is made possible through the Aadhaar Enabled Payment System (AEPS), a service introduced by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI).

AEPS allows users to carry out a variety of banking transactions, such as cash withdrawals, balance inquiries, and fund transfers, using their Aadhaar number and biometric authentication. These services can be accessed at micro-ATMs and other banking agents.

Aadhaar Card Money Withdrawal Limit Per Month

AEPS withdrawal limits vary by bank, typically ranging from Rs 10,000 to Rs 50,000 per day. Some banks may impose restrictions on AEPS services due to security policies. It’s important to ensure that your Aadhaar is linked to your bank account to use this service for cash withdrawals.

How To Easily Withdraw Cash Using Your Aadhaar Card 

Step 1: Visit a nearby banking correspondent (BC) or a micro-ATM service point, typically found in rural areas or post offices.

Step 2: Provide Your Aadhaar Number: Give your 12-digit Aadhaar number to the correspondent.

Step 3: Bank and Authentication: Select your bank and authenticate using fingerprint or iris scanning.

Step 4: Enter Amount: Specify the cash amount you wish to withdraw.

Step 5: Once authenticated, you will receive the cash, and a receipt of the transaction.
