Hi,

My father was working with NHPC LTD and passed away in 1999. We are three children of my father, and two of us, including me and my elder brother, are receiving the pension along with my mother. In May, my elder brother will turn 25 and will no longer be eligible for the pension. Could you please advise me on how my younger brother, who is 19 years old, can receive the benefits of children's pension?

Dear,

As per the Employees' Pension Act, after the death of a husband, the widow and two children are authorized to receive a pension. In this case, the widow's pension is fixed, but as the two children will also receive a pension with their mother, the amount is divided between the three in a certain fixed ratio. When the children reach the age of 25, become dependent, or in the case of a girl, get married, that share of the pension goes to the mother.

Thank you.

Mr. Malik is absolutely right. You will find this in PF Form No. 2 (Nomination and Declaration Form); there is a clear mention about the widow's pension and children's pension.

But I have one query, Mr. Malik: Suppose the pension amount is Rs. 5000. So, what amount should be for the widow, and what should be for her two children? Will you divide this Rs. 5000 in three equal parts, or will any other ratio be applicable? Please let me know.

Mr. Malik is absolutely right. You will find this information in PF Form No. 2 (Nomination and Declaration Form), where it clearly mentions about the widow pension and children pension.

However, I have one query for Mr. Malik: Suppose the pension amount is Rs. 5000. What amount should be allocated for the widow and what should be allocated for her two children?

Would you divide this Rs. 5000 equally into three parts, or should a different ratio be applied? Please let me know.

Abhi, can you tell me which form you are referring to? You mentioned some PF form, and I am confused about this law because as far as I know, the pension is given only to widows, and there is a job facility provided on compassionate grounds to either the widow or the son/daughter. Could you please share a format or provide a link to a website for clarification?

Mr. Malik is right. After your attaining the age of 25 your pension amount will go to your mother account. Regards, Digpal
