IMPORTANCE OF HAVING JOINT ACCOUNT IN BANKS WITH SPOUSE FOR PENSION

 


IMPORTANCE OF HAVING JOINT ACCOUNT WITH SPOUSE FOR PENSION.

                                        

We had, Time and again  advised our veterans  to convert the existing Pension account in to JOINT ACCOUNT  with their spouse .

For  this , JOINT NOTIFICATION  should have been published.  ppo LIKE    S/JN / 12347/2026

Now, for the last few months , more than 3 veterans have died. All of them  were having  only SINGLE account.

Though the JOINT  NOTIFICATION  was there,  due to this single a/c , their SPOUSE  have to open,   Bank account  for the credit of their pension.  Here, they have to establish the genuineness, that is , wife of so and so.

More over, they have  to submit Documents  like Form 14, Non-Marriage certificate, Widowhood,  Declaration, Descriptive Roll, Aadhar and PAN card  etc.

 

If there had been Joint account, only a written  intimation along with death certificate will be enough to  change over to Family pension.

Now, the poor WIDOW  has to run,  pillar to post  for getting her pension.

 

It may take more than 3 to 6 months time to get the pension  and the widow has to face the financial hardship  for running the  family.

 

All our Ex-Servicemen Associations are once again requested to  advise  our veterans in their areas  suitably  to have JOINT ACCOUNT  with their spouse.

Dear all,

We the Trustees of EXWELTRUST  , Tirunelveli- district Tamil Nadu,

KNOW ABOUT WAR WIDOWS POSITION

 


 


Dear Veteran Brothers, 

Please go through this Article and express your views and suggestions.

Who are called   WAR WIDOWS?

We all know that, the widows of soldiers who died in War or War like activities while in service are called  WAR WIDOWS.

They are granted with Liberalised Family pension./  It is OK.

But in case of Widows of War injured veterans –died  after discharge – how they are called , whether they are called as War widows or normal widows.  This is the question.

Practically they are called as normal widows only. E.g  One Sep V.Kandan ( 8002935) of Pioneer RO , lost his Hand during 1962 War. He was boarded out with WAR injury Pension  D/742/1972 AND later D/BC/6033/2002. He served for 2 yrs only.   He died . His wife is sanctioned with Ordinary Normal pension only.  

2.   One Nb.Sub. A. Savariraj ( JC 151186M ) of  MRC  Records lost both EYES during land Mine blast in IPK in Sri Lanka.   He was also boarded out  with War injury pension.  PPO  S/034122/1988 AND   223198800404.

 He also died .HIS  WIFE ALSO SANCTIONED WITH NORMAL FAMILY PENSION. 

There are so many cases like this.  

Now , we feel that both the type of widows may be treated as WAR WIDOW .Think , their type of pension may vary.  First case, no doubt- Liberalised Family pension. But the other type may be granted as Special Family pension or at least  ENHANCED RATE OF FAMILY PENSION till their life.  Or  their Qualifying service may be treated as if they have served for full term say 33 yrs  

If they are given Normal family pension, then there is no difference between the normal ( discharged deceased  ) families and  widows of War injured pensioners,

All our learned veterans are requested to think over  and try to put forward this case of War Widows to authorities when  ever possible.
