Oct 8, 2025

EOBI RS 50000 pension update

EOBI stands for Employees’ Old-Age Benefits Institution. It’s basically a government-run pension system for private sector workers. If you’ve worked in a registered company and your employer contributed to EOBI on your behalf, you’re probably eligible.

Eligibility Criteria – Do You Qualify for EOBI Pension?

Here’s a quick checklist:

You must have worked in an EOBI-registered company
Your employer should’ve paid EOBI contributions regularly
You should’ve reached the retirement age (60 for men, 55 for women)
You must have 15 years of insured employment (or more)

Even if you’re a widow or dependent of an EOBI pensioner, you might still be eligible.

EOBI Rs. 50,000 Pension Update – Real or Rumor?

The news about EOBI increasing the pension to Rs. 50,000 per month in 2025 has been circulating everywhere, but as of now—it’s not officially confirmed by the EOBI or Ministry of Overseas Pakistanis & Human Resource Development.

Currently, the official pension amount is Rs. 10,000/month. While there have been discussions about increasing it, especially due to inflation, there’s no finalized notification for the Rs. 50,000 figure. So for now, treat it as a rumor unless you hear it from the official source.

What is the EOBI Sahulat Card 2025 – And How Does It Work?

Now, this part is actually happening—and it’s a big step forward.

The EOBI Sahulat Card is being introduced in 2025 to make it easier for pensioners to:

Receive payments
Access discounts on medical treatments
Use digital services
