  The minimum working period required for EOBI pension is fifteen years. This duration is same for both working men and women. Though in case of death during service, only three years service is sufficient for pension.

  You can write a letter to EOBI Regional Head in your area and inform the Director of EOBI office regarding your problem. He will take action against the employer and sort out your issue immediately. If in spite of that, the issue is not resolved, let us know and we will guide you regarding further appropriate steps you can take.

  You have 12 years service in your credit, and you will need 3 years more service to become eligible for EOBI Pension. Whenever you return to Pakistan and continue your service, you can complete the required 15 years service. In case you can’t continue service in EOBI scheme and you reach the age of 60, you will be issued a grant (i.e. gratuity) which is a lump sum one time amount.
