PAYMENT OF ADDITIONAL PENSION

i IMAGE OF
WORRIED COUPLE FOR NOT GETTING ADDITIONAL
PENSION FOR WANT OF OTHER DOCUMENTS.

PAYMENT OF ADDITIONAL PENSION TO PRE-86 RETIREES -80 YRS AND ABOVE PENSIONERS –

Correct interpretation is needed :

In the order,CDA cir 417, it reads as “ In case the information regarding date of birth/ age in not available in the PPO or other office records, then the other documents like PAN card, Voters LD/ Driving license etc to be submitted.”

Refer : GOI, MOD letter No: 1(ii)/2009/D/(Pen& Policy) dated 18-8-2009 and CDA Cir 417 dated 2-9-2009: In both the cases the para 2 reads as :

In case the exact date of birth is not available either in PPO/ Discharge certificate, but an indication regarding age of the pensioner is available in the PPO/Discharge certificate , the additional pension shall be paid from the

Ist January of the year in which the pensioner completed 80yrs of age.

In case neither the exact DOB nor the Age is available in the PPO/Discharge certificate, the other Documents like PAN card. Voters ID etc to be submitted”

We have practically gone through many PPO/Discharge certificate of Pre-86 pensioners . where the age on Enrolment or Age on discharge is mentioned in all these PPO/Discharge certificates.

Where the age is mentioned, the PDA can pay Addl.Pen from I st January of the year in which he has completed 80yrs. Without insisting for other documents. Thus avoiding the Provisional payment of 3 or 6 months period and stopping the pension for non-receipt of Corr.PPO

Now we have received information that as per CDA Cir 441- the Age on Enrolment / age on Discharge may be sufficient to disburse the Additional pension without insisting for other documents and no need for Corr. PPO.

Pension Disbursing Authorities and pensioners may take note of this.
