Husband of my friend worked in private sector for more than 10 years and died due to cancer in Feb, 2017 after two years of leaving the job. She applied for widow pension in EPF office at Dwarka, New Delhi. Her claim has been rejected saying "Final claim already settled in December, 2016". Is she really not eligible for widow pension?

Dear Vijay, you have to find out whether deceased Employee had with drawn his PF & EPS Accumulations consequent to leaving Service, before Death.If Employee had withdrawn Both EPF & EPS before Death, Spouse is not eligible for Widow Pension consequent to Death.
Consequently, visit PF Office & find out facts with specific reference to PF Office Remarks "Final claim already settled in December, 2016".
