The Indian pensioners are required to submit a Life Certificate to the Pension Disbursing Authorities (PDAs) in November every year, either by presenting themselves personally or by delivering a life certificate in the prescribed format to provide proof of their aliveness so that they can get their due pension without any fraud involved.
Sometimes, the requirement to produce/submit this certificate causes huge hardships to the aged/ill pensioners. To simplify the process of submission, the government has digitalised this process by introducing the Digital Life Certificate for pensioners called Jeevan Pramaan. You can simply follow some easy steps to get the Jeevan Pramaan Certificate via the UMANG app.
