VERY USEFUL MESSAGE FOR VETERANS AND FAMILY PENSIONERS.

 

AN IMPORTANT   INFORMATION TO OUR VETERANS.

  Dear veterans,

  we are all in an Opinion that  DUAL family pension is eligible for  all Re-employed  Ex-Servicemen families (cir 504).

Here is a special message in this regard. 

There are  some widows are eligible for Special  or liberalized family pension for the  first service i.e Military service .

Where the death or disability was due to Attributable to service causes. .Hence Special  or Liberalised Family pension..

In such cases, where the family is in receipt of Special Family pension,  or  Liberalised Family pension,  she is not eligible for  same Special or Liberalised Family pension for the second service. ( Ref; MOD ltr. No: PC:2(6) /2013-D ( Pen/Pol) dated 08-07-2019. )

She is eligible for ORDINARY FAMILY PENSION FOR THE SECOND SERVICE.

 Such cases are rare but it is to be noted.   Just by referring CDA cir 504,  we should not think that the families drawing SFP  is  also eligible for one more SFP  for the second service.       These instructions  are clearly  spelled in CDA cir 626 dated 19-08-2019.

 Our veterans are requested to convey this message to other veterans in their areas.

abnormal delay in getting the change.

 change of PDA*/ Banks.

The procedure is as follows:

Only requirement  is , new Bank a/c No, Bank pass book,   or unused cheque leaf 

  for the proof of new Bank a/c and IFSC   details.

Our veterans may change  the Bank details  in Sparsh portal under My profile/

 Manage profile  and uploading the new details.  Preferably immediately after the monthly

Pension credit so that  the change will take before the next pension credit.

Login to your Soarsh Portal account using your Log in details but before that keep a scan copy of a cancelled cheque of your new bank account ready on your device for upload.
