The Government of Pakistan Finance Division has revised the policy on Ordinary Family Pension. The changes, effective immediately, are based on recommendations from the Pay and Pension Commission-2020.
Here are the key points:
Pension Duration for Family Members:
Ordinary Family Pension will now be available to eligible family members for a maximum of 10 years following the death or ineligibility of the spouse.
Special Provisions for Disabled and Entitled Children:
- The pension will continue for the lifetime of disabled or special children.
- For other eligible children, the pension will be available for 10 years or until they turn 21—whichever comes later.
This update changes the previous guidelines and takes effect immediately.
