How To Submit Life Certificate Through SBI Website And Mobile App In Easy Steps
In a bid to facilitate the process of submitting a life certificate or Jeevan Praman for pensioners, the State Bank of India has started the new Video Life Certificate (VLC) service. The feature allows pensioners to submit their life certificates through a video call with an SBI official.
Central government pensioners are required to submit their life certificates to the Pension Disbursing Agency (PDA) every year to keep drawing their pension. The certificate is important as a proof of existence of the pensioner.
