Questions about this tool

What is this needed for?

Widow pension schemes — Sanjay Gandhi Niradhar, Indira Gandhi National Widow Pension — and for ration card, property and succession matters where marital status must be stated.

What else must I attach?

Usually the husband's death certificate, your Aadhaar, a bank passbook copy and an income certificate. The office will have its own list; ask for it before you file.

The death was not registered.

Register it first. The late registration file maker builds the application for a delayed death registration.

What if I remarry later?

Tell the paying office. Most widow pension schemes stop on remarriage, and continuing to draw one afterwards can mean repaying what you received — exactly what this declaration states.

Is there a version for a widower?

This one is written for a widow (श्रीमती). A widower can adapt the wording before printing, or use the general self-declaration letter instead.

Can I save my progress and finish it later?

Yes — what you type is kept in your own browser as you go, so closing the tab and coming back later restores it without retyping.
