Quick answer
To complete the current life-verification requirement, prepare pension authority or book, citizenship, recent verification form, bank, embassy or local authentication if required, confirm the current process with the Pension Management Office, former employing authority and paying bank, complete the official application, and keep the receipt or reference for follow-up.
Eligibility
- Pensioners required to confirm that they are alive and eligible for continued payment
- Applicants who need to complete the current life-verification requirement using matching and genuine records
- An authorized representative only when the responsible authority accepts representation
Required documents checklist
- □ Citizenship, pension authority or lawful claimant identity matching the service record
- □ pension authority or book
- □ citizenship
- □ recent verification form
- □ bank, embassy or local authentication if required
- □ Official pension, gratuity, correction, verification or grievance reference
- □ Official pension-office, department or bank statement and receipt

Step-by-step process
- Confirm that the Pension Management Office, former employing authority and paying bank is the correct authority for this request.

- Submit through the official portal or office and pay only through the approved channel.
- Save the application number, receipt, uploaded-file copies, and any written instruction for follow-up.
Fees and timelines
- Do not rely on an old fee screenshot or an agent's estimate. Check the latest official notice, citizen charter, portal, or responsible office before paying.
- Processing time depends on document matching, office workload, inspection, examination, technical review, or approval level. Keep the receipt and follow-up reference.
Common mistakes
- Using an old form, notice, fee, or unofficial link
- Submitting incomplete or mismatched pension authority or book, citizenship, recent verification form, bank, embassy or local authentication if required
- Paying an unofficial person or personal account without an official receipt
- Ignoring the difference between a new application, renewal, correction, duplicate, verification, or transfer
- Missing life verification can suspend payment, while false certification can create recovery and legal problems.
