Annual proof of life is requested around October
If you live abroad as a pensioner, we will request an annual “proof of life” from you. This is also known as an Attestate de Vita (AdV). This proof of life is necessary for the payment of your pension. This request will take place around October this year. We cannot yet estimate whether the corona crisis is affecting the acquisition of life certificates. You may not be able to arrange the proof of life around October due to the corona crisis. The HPF will in due course, based on the corona situation at that moment, assess how to deal with the situation and inform you about this.
