SABF (Annuity payment from LIC)

Difficulties faced by Spouse/nominee in getting SABF (Annuity payment from LIC): In many cases Spouse or nominee of the deceased retired officer face difficulties due to discrepancy/anomaly in the names:

  1. The name of the deceased retired officer in the LIC record, Aadhar card and PAN card should be exactly same. Some members have written full name in one document and short name in other document. In some cases surname is mentioned in one document and not mentioned in other document.
  2. Similarly name of Spouse and nominee(s) in all three documents should be exactly same.
  3. All retired officers are requested to check the above details and modify the name and contact details if required.
  4. All retired officers are requested to check the nominations details and modify if required. Nomination details of only those officer(s) are available on the online portal, who have filled his/her details online. Those officers who have filled physical forms are required to check their details from the relevant IOC office. Nomination can be changed any time. It is desirable that nominations details are filled online.  

 

Felicitation Claims

All retired officers who are eligible for Felicitation claims (see details in the Felicitation menu) must claim the same as soon as possible and during his/her life time. The claim is not payable after death of the retired employee. Recently one case came to our notice where a retired officer expired in July’ 22 at the age of more than 87 years. He was not aware about this Felicitation scheme, although other retired IOC officers were staying in the same residential complex.

All retired IOC officers who have achieved 70 years age milestone must claim his/her felicitation award as soon as possible. Please check with other known retired IOC officers also.

WILL

Death is certain – and may result in leaving behind property, moveable and immoveable for the benefit of heir/loved ones. With a view to have smooth transfer of property/assets to the beneficiaries as per one’s desires it is advisable to make a WILL.

 

What is a WILL

It is a written document. It can be written on an ordinary piece of paper and contains the intention of the testator as to how to dispose of his property/assets and to whom.

This WILL document can be registered with the registrar if so desired. However

both type of wills registered and unregistered have legal sanctity.

 

Who can make a WILL

Any person who is major, is of sound mind and who has a clear title of the property/assets he/she wishes to dispose. In respect of property/assets inherited legal opinion should be taken before writing the will.

  3. All stipulations in the will must be clearly spelt out e.g. name of the

benificiery/s and their share/s.

  1. A will is a It is not irrevocable. A will can be modified or replaced with a new will superseding the earlier will. However, if any modification or changes are made in the earlier will, the corrections must be signed by testator/s.
