Provide proof of studentship – GIPF
The Government Institutions Pension Fund (GIPF) called on children annuitants (beneficiaries) to submit their proof enrolment (school letters) at their nearest GIPF office on time to avoid any delays in the processing of their benefits.The GIPF said that only authorised signatories (Principal, Faculty Officer, Rector, Director, Branch Coordinator and or the Deputy Head of Department or anyone acting in that capacity) from the respective schools or institutions of higher education are allowed to sign the studentship letters.
If a student took a break in his/her studies due to any unforeseen circumstances, then he/she should submit proof of studentship for payment of benefits to continue until they turn 25 years old.
