Struggling with EPF Pension Claim: Do I Need a Scheme Certificate at 58?

ravindran-n1

When I attempt to enter the claim for monthly pension (Form 10D) in the EPF portal, it allows until the Aadhar PIN stage, and then gives an error indicating "Enter scheme certificate details." I am 58 years old and have retired after working for more than 30 years. Is a scheme certificate applicable for me?

NOTE: I have already claimed PF through the same portal.

Thanks,

Hi,

Yes, the Scheme certificate is applicable after 10 years of service. Please apply for the same through your PF office.
