  3. Thanks for helping. My father was getting two pensions (Army and BSF). After his death in Jan 1998, my mother is getting only one family pension from Army. There are many similar cases a few in our village. Some may not be having PPO copy of other pension which they stopped getting after the death of their husband. Then what to do? What I understand, I have to approach BSF. If you kindly clarify both the points then it can save lots of time.
    Regards.

    Thanks for your information. After having discharged fro Air Force, i was re-employed in Railways. At the time of my retirement from re-employed service, i was asked to obtain NOC from Air Force for the sanction of Family pension from Railways which was financially beneficial to me. I did the same and got my family pension sanctioned from Railways after getting NOC and Corr.PPO de-notifying my wife`s name.
    Since i am eligible for the dual family pension now, i applied to AFRO, Dy CDA(AF) with all the relevant enclosures by speed post and through e.mail on 30-06-2013.
    Kindly advise me further
    Regards

Just writ a letter the AOC record office along with the copy of the related documents including death certificate and legal heir certificate through the respective Ex-serviceman welfare board office. With a month or two you will get the claim form, subject to the condition all your records are in order.

  18. Sir in forms for completion sent by records carry a certificate from family pension that she opts for army pension and will not claim the other pension. Please take up the matter with concerned authorities to make the appropriate changes. Also please guide in case name of spouse is not registered in ppo by army but she is getting her family pension from civil how the spouse should proceed.

  19. Respected Sir,

    My husband retired from the Army in 1951 and subsequently SRP Force (Gujarat). That's why my husband gets two pensions from the central and the state government. In 1978 my husband died. After that I get the one family pension of Gujarat State Government. Army family pension is not available. If I want to apply for the Army's Family Pension, then what address should I apply on the application for dual family pension.?
