Deceased employee benefits are paid only to legal representatives designated as Estate Administrators.  These are expected to have obtained letters of administration from the High Court and to have opened up an Estate account to which the payments would be made.

For officers that may have served less than 10 years, a death gratuity is paid as a one off while for those that served for more than 10 years, a death gratuity is paid and monthly pension is also paid to the survivors for 15 years (this is applicable for those deaths that occurred on or after 24th March 1994). Upon the elapse of 15 years, this benefit is automatically stopped.

Where a pensioner dies before earning pension for 15years, the survivors earn a survivors’ benefit for the remaining part of the 15years after which it also stops automatically.

My father  was a police commander but he died in 2002, my mother and grandfather tried to process his gratuity and other related benefits but in vain. So now both my mother and grandfather are not there anymore. Is there a way I could start processing all that afresh, if there is anyone who can help…..I will be grateful.
