EPFO urges all EPS-95 pensioners to submit a fresh declaration form by August 31 to ensure uninterrupted payments, prevent fraud, and confirm updated details li

In an necessary announcement that affects lakhs of senior citizens, the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has asked all EPS-95 pensioners to submit a fresh statement form by August 31, 2025. This step is being taken to ensure disruptions in pension payments, prevent fraud, and update records with accurate personal details.

The announcement form will require pensioners to verify a few key things: their employment status (to check eligibility), Aadhaar linkage, bank account details, and a valid life certificate. This process, according to EPFO, is required to maintain transparency and prevents pensions only reach those who are genuinely eligible.

For many pensioners, specifically those living in remote or rural areas, this might feel like yet another causality. But officials have assured that the process is simple and can be done both online and offline. Pensioners can use the UMANG app or go to the official EPFO portal to submit the form. Those uncomfortable with digital platforms can go to the nearest EPFO office or Common Service Centre (CSC) for assistance.

The declaration is aimed at avoiding errors and misuse. In the past, pensions have sometimes continued even after a beneficiary’s death or change in status. By asking for updated information, EPFO hopes to plug these gaps.

Pensioners are advised not to delay, as failure to submit the form before the August 31 deadline could lead to a temporary halt in pension disbursements.

At its heart, this update is not about bureaucracy it’s about ensuring that every deserving pensioner continues to receive their rightful support on time, without any hiccups. So, a little paperwork today could go a long way in securing peace of mind tomorrow.
