Now the process of submitting life certificate every year for pensioners has become more convenient than ever. EPFO has recently informed that now with the help of face authentication technology, pensioners can easily download and submit their life certificate i.e. Digital Life Certificate (DLC) at home. This facility has reduced problems for millions of elderly and disabled, who were earlier forced to visit the bank, post office or EPFO office.
Now smartphone and internet is enough
Pension holders are required to submit life certificate every year so that their pension continues uninterrupted. Earlier, it had to go to the bank or post office to submit this certificate, which used to take a lot of time and hard work. But now, with EPFO’s face authentication technology, this entire process can be completed at home with the help of mobile and internet. That is, now pensioners do not need to go to these offices, only smartphones and internet.
Banking and post office apps are also providing facilities
Apart from EPFO, many big banks and post offices are also providing this service through their mobile banking or internet banking apps. People wishing to get pension can download the official app of their respective bank or post office and submit the life certificate by giving necessary information there. This process is completely digital and along with saving time, real time updates are also available to submit the certificate.
The whole process is high -tech and safe
It is considered safe to generate a certificate from the latest face authentication technology, as the person is identified on the basis of reality. This initiative of EPFO has made the process of submitting online life certificates easy, fast and reliable. This step is really relieving for the elderly and disabled, who can now easily submit their certificate sitting at home.
What to keep in mind
It is necessary for pensioners to submit digital life certificate every year, only then their pension is available. Now, due to this process becoming digital and easy, senior citizens have got rid of the problems of going round the offices. To take advantage of the service, protect personal information and use only authorized app or website.
