Required Documents for Pension | Instructions for Pensioners | Pension SOPs 2026

Описание: After getting retirement, the next step is to apply for a pension. To apply for pension online, there are a few required documents to be attached to the pension forms.
I will share the State Bank’s instructions for pensioners and family pensioners. These are pension SOPs.
Instructions of the State Bank of Pakistan regarding biometric verification, life certificate, and non-marriage certificate are given below;
1. Pensioner shall be required to undergo biometric verification from any branch of a bank maintaining his/ her pension account, every year in March and September. If the pensioner is unable to undergo biometric verification due to incapacitation by bodily illness, infirmity, or if his/ her fingerprints do not exist due to old age or a genetic condition, he/she will provide a life certificate as per the SOPs.
2. In case of family pension, a Non-Marriage declaration shall be obtained from pensioners on or before 30th September of each year instead of March and September.
3. Submission of above mentioned Non-Marriage declaration will be dispensed with after the widow/ daughter/ sister of the pensioner (family pension recipient) attains the age of sixty years.
4. If a pensioner fails to submit a life certificate or fails to undergo biometric verification during March and September or a pensioner does not draw a pension for a consecutive six months, the account shall become dormant.
