The National Social Security Administration (Anses) arranged From March 1, the mandatory nature of the survival or life certificate procedure for the collection of retirement benefits and pensions that, depending on the financial entity through which the credit is received, can be done in person, virtually or automatically, without the need for procedures of any kind.
To prevent people from having to present in person a document proving their survivalAnses asked banking entities to simplify the procedure and offer digital alternatives to retirement and pension holders who collect their assets through them.
In recent weeks, various public sector entities such as the National Bank, Province Bank, the Bank of Córdoba and the Bank of La Pampastopped requesting proof of life from retirees and pensioners who collect their salaries in these institutions, since they automatically cross the records of the National Registry of Persons (Renaper) with their databases to verify survival.
“From Anses we continue to work and call on private banks so that they also decide to adapt their systems, preventing retirees and pensioners from having to attend in person to prove survival,” the head of Anses, Fernanda Raverta, said this week.

The choice of mouth of payment (bank entity where retirees and pensioners collect their credit) is free and the change can be made at the Anses office closest to home.
At a general level, the most used digital forms to carry out the life certificate process are: making purchases with the debit card associated with the bank account where the credit is collected; put the fingerprint on the totems or ATMs located in the banks; approach an Anses biometric self-query terminal, or use the mobile applications of banking entities.
