If you have worked in an EPFO-registered organization, you're already contributing towards a pension under the Employees’ Pension Scheme (EPS). As retirement approaches, the next step is claiming what you’ve earned—your monthly pension. That’s where EPF Form 10D comes in.
This form is your official application for receiving monthly EPS pension benefits. But understanding how to fill it, when to apply, and what documents are needed can make all the difference in avoiding delays or errors.
While your pension covers a major part of your retirement plan, it may not be enough. That’s why many retirees also choose Fixed Deposits (FDs)—a trusted way to earn steady, risk-free returns. Check latest rates offered by Bajaj Finance on their AAA/Stable rated FDs.
What is EPF Form 10D?
EPF Form 10D is used to claim monthly pension benefits under the EPS. It's required when:
- You are retiring at 58
- Opting for early retirement at 50 (with a reduced pension)
- Claiming a pension as a nominee, dependent, or surviving family member
