DIVIDED FAMILY PENSION REGARDING

                                              

Dear veteran brothers, 

This article  is regarding the  Divided Family pension;

Divided pension is normally granted to  2nd wife( lawfully)   and eligible any one of the children of first wife- ,  or 1st wife and children of 2nd wife.  Equal share  i.e  50% each.

In a Divided family pension cases, where one  pensioner died, the surviving pensioner is automatically  become eligible  for  full pension,  100%,  that is restoration of full pension instead of the existing 50%  

To get this benefit, the death of  pensioner is to be intimated to PDA ( Bank ) as well as the CDA or  Sparsh, if already migrated, with full particulars , PPO no, Bank  and account No etc,  along with a copy of death certificate. This is done by the living pensioner or the relatives of the deceased pensioner.. 

Sparsh Migrated case:  this event is to be reported in the  Sparsh Portal- without Login-

   Services-  Report events heading-     Death Report/ Family pension/stoppage of pension- by furnishing full particulars as per the format in the system -like details of the deceased  and the claimant   ( Death certificate,  Bank details to be uploaded ) 

After verifying the generousness  of the case (death )  . the CDA /Sparsh  will issue  a corr, PPO  informing the  PDA /*SPARSH  to pay full pension to the surviving pensioner –

  This is called RESTORATION OF FULL PENSION.

On receipt of this  instructions , corr.PPO, the PDA  or Sparsh authorities will start   paying full   pension.to the living pensioner. .

FOR THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR VETERANS

 

                                              FOR INFORMATION OF OUR VETERANS 

This is regarding the eligibility of Family pension to a Judicially Separated spouse.

We are all in a opinion that a Divorced Spouse is not eligible for family pension after the death of pensioner.  But it is not so;

  If a male Govt.servant  dies leaving behind  a Judicially separated widow  and no child or children , the family pension shall be payable to the widow .  If the judicial separation was granted  on the ground of ADULTERY  and the widow was held guilty of committing Adultery, no Family pension shall be payable.


In  a normal Divorce,  the widow shall be eligible for Family pension.  

As per  CCS Pension Rule 1972,   Sub Rule- 54  ( 11-A  and  11-B) ,

A divorced Widow  other than Adultery case, is eligible for family pension after the death of pensioner under the following conditions:

a)  If there is no Child or children  or children become In-eligible , the Family pension shall be payable to the  Divorced widow  till her death or remarriage  which ever is earlier.

b)  If the child or children are Minor,  then the divorced widow is eligible for Family pension as  a Guardian for the children.

Note:  

Here , some times the parents of the deceased , ( married pensioner) claim for family pension stating that  the widow was divorced with their son, hence no pension to her and  family pension may be granted to Mother  or father of the deceased.

This situation  is applicable only if the deceased was a bachelor  and not  in case of Married person. After marriage, all the   benefits go to spouse or children only.

All our veterans may please note the same  for reference.

VALUABLE INFORMATION TO VETERANS

   



 VERY VALUABLE AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION 


Many of the pensioners hesitate  in filing  IT returns,  but there is an important information  that shows that  filing  IT returns  has a great advantage to the families  of Pensioners at the time of any accidental death of the pensioner.  


As per section 166 of the Motor Vehicle Act, 1988 ( Supreme court  Judgment under civil appeal No.9858 of 1953 ),

In case, a pensioner died in an accident, his family  is entitled  to 10 times of average income of the last three years , provided he had filed the IT returns  for the last three years.

For Example: 

If the monthly pension of a pensioner  is 25000/- , then his annual income will be 25000 X 12= 3,00000/-. Average income of the last three years say  300000/-, then his family will get  10 times of 3 Lacs-   300000 X 10 = 30,00,000/- 30 Lacs  from Government .No other proof , other than IT returns will be required by the court.  So, filing of IT returns  regularly , even NIL returns by the pensioner  will go  a long way in providing a BIG  economic relief to the bereaved family of the pensioner  on his/ her death by accident.

Failure to file  IT returns  due to ignorance about this information will lead to a great loss to the family  of the pensioner .

All our ESM  associations are requested to pass on this message to our veterans in their areas.

Dear veteran brothers, 

We had already published the same article. Once again we are publishing the same as still some banks have not included the  service element, paying Disabilityelement only..

There was a provision for granting DISABILITY ELEMENT  only for those

 who were boarded out with less than 10 yrs of service prior to 1-1-2006..

Now, our Govt., on considering the sufferings of such veterans , has  published

  an order in 2020  for granting both Service element and Disability for such veterans

  Whether Pre  or Post 2006 invalided out veterans w.e.f  01-01-2006.

The Dept of Pension and Pension welfare has issued an order on 28-7-2020.

We understand that , still some Banks are paying only Disability element .

The Order is very clear to pay both SERVICE  ELEMENT and DISABILITY ELEMENT  to such veterans w/e/f  1-1-2006.

The affected veterans may approach  their Bank branches for getting this benefit

 or  they can approach our Trust office for guidance and help.
