Am I Eligible for My Pension Now? Navigating Scheme Certificates Across States

kajal banerjee
I have received a Scheme Certificate for Pension through my previous employer. I worked there for more than 10 years (1992-2006) and left. I am now running my own business. I am 54 years old. My questions are:

a) Am I eligible for a pension now?
b) If yes, where should I contact since my PF office is located in Maharashtra and I am residing in West Bengal?

You are eligible to receive only a reduced pension. In order to get the full pension, you may need to wait until you attain 58 years of age. The Scheme certificate has to be sent to the office from where it was issued. Please contact your nearest PF Office for details and further advice on this matter.
