How to submit digital life certificate (Jeevan Pramaan) using Face Recognition Service

In order to continue receiving pension, retirees must submit their life certificates every year in the month of November (with a special provision for pensioners 80 years of age and older to submit their life certificates in the month of October).

In the past, pensioners had to physically submit their Life Certificate to the Pension Disbursing Authority, which was cumbersome, especially for elderly, ill, and infirm pensioners. Additionally, there was no way for pensioners to check the status of the updating of their Life Certificates in the Pension Disbursing Authority's records.

DLC submission using biometrics was started earlier. The government has now created a Face-Recognition technology system based on the Aadhar database, allowing anyone with an Android-based smartphone to provide a DLC. Jitendra Singh, Minister of State for Personnel, PG and Pensions urged all pensioners to avail the facility of Face Authentication technology.

Points to note
• The face app may be used without a biometric device because it uses the phone's camera to take a picture of the user's face.
• Only in India can you download the Jeevan Pramaan face app.
