Hi,

The Legal Heir /Nominee of the Employee will be eligible for Provident Fund / Monthly Pension and EDLI.

A nominee or legal heir of an active member of EPFO gets a lump sum payment of up to Rs. 7 lakh in case of death of the member during the service period.

PF amount depends on the total contribution period and available balance in the PF account and if the Member haven't made any partial withdrawal.

Pension amount depends on the service period.


As for as ESI benefit is concerned Dependants benefit (family pension) is payable to dependants of a deceased insured person where death occurs due to employment injury or an occupational disease. A widow can receive this benefit on a monthly basis for life or till her re-marriage. A son or daughter can receive this benefit till eighteen years of age.

Also some funeral benefit to the extend of Rs.15000/- will be reimbursed to the eldest surviving member of the deceased, or the person, who had actually incurred the expenditure to perform the last rites of the IP.

As for as documents is concerned check for physical PF nomination made by the employee. Collect Death certificate , Legal Heir Certification, Marriage Registration certificate from the spouse of the employee for processing PF/Pension benefits.
