Pension Withdrawal Alert: Is a Succession Certificate Really Needed?

Dear HR Leaders,

Please refer to the enclosed PF notification on "Succession certificate is not required for Pension withdrawal."

With Thanks and Best Regards,

Good that clarifications have been given on the succession certificate issue. Every death case should not result in the EPF office asking for succession certificates. Only where rival claimants are involved or in doubtful cases, succession certificates from the civil court should be asked for.

Mr. N. Gowda,

Thank you for sharing the informative circular on this forum. It is greatly appreciated by the members. Please keep up the good work.
