Ask the staff about the current form and the list of documents needed. Always get a receipt or application number, even if you apply on paper. ## How do you check status, and what if payment is stuck? Use the status check option on the state portal with your application number. If the pension is stuck, the usual reasons are a bank account not linked with Aadhaar or incomplete verification.
