PFRDA Launches Digital Life Certificate Submission for UPS Pensioners via Mobile App
The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has launched the UPS Jeevan Setu mobile application, enabling Unified Pension Scheme (UPS) pensioners to submit their annual Digital Life Certificates via Aadhaar-based face authentication. This digital process replaces physical submissions, aiming to simplify compliance and ensure uninterrupted pension payments. Pensioners must complete the submission by November 30 each year using the NPS, UPS, and APY mobile app, which verifies identity through OTP and biometric authentication.
