Rules, Rights & Rites -127
I usually post all important items related to official rulings, union news, and other general matters on my YouTube channels: Yourskayveeyes (English) and Anbudan Kayveeyes (Tamil).
However, due to the recent spate of orders and the high volume of information being received, I have not been able to convert every item into a video. Therefore, I am introducing these new slots to post current matters and updates that have not yet been published on YouTube. This ensures you stay informed on every detail, even if a video hasn't been made yet …………….Kayveeyes
Procedure for submitting and processing Children Education Allowance (CEA) claims in APT 2.0:
• Online submission of CEA claims through the APT 2.0 digital framework is now mandatory.
• Employees must still submit physical copies of their claims along with supporting documents to their concerned office/DDO for verification and record purposes.
• Physical claim submissions must continue to follow the existing format prescribed by the DoPT.
• The APT 2.0 platform provides a comprehensive digital framework handling the submission, verification, approval, and payment/disbursement of CEA claims alongside automated system checks.
• Employees access the application portal (https://app.indiapost.gov.in/employeeportal) using their Employee ID and Password, followed by mandatory two-factor authentication via an Authenticator App (TOTP) or Mobile OTP.
• Once logged in, the employee navigates by clicking on the Employee Self Service icon, then the Employee Payments System card, followed by the Pay re-reimbursement card, and finally the Reimbursements subcard.
• From the dropdown menu, the employee selects "Children Education Allowance" and indicates whether their spouse is a government employee.
• Eligible children are auto-populated into a dropdown directly from the Personnel Information System (PIS). The user checks the box for the relevant child and manually inputs the Standard & Academic Year, Institute Name, Claim Amount, and Hostel Subsidy (if applicable).
• The employee clicks on "Preview" to review the details, uploads the necessary supporting documents, and clicks the "Upload" button.
• After reviewing the populated info, the employee clicks "Submit," which generates a system success message containing a unique request ID.
• The designated Verification Authority logs in, navigates to the Payroll System card, opens the Verification & Approvals card, and clicks on the Verification subcard.
• Pending employee requests are auto-populated. The authority clicks the request ID hyperlink to view details and downloads the attached files using the "Download Attachment" button.
• The authority enters the verified, eligible amount along with remarks, clicks the "Verify" button, and confirms by clicking "Yes" on the pop-up modal to finalize verification.
• Alternatively, the user can reassign the request to a different verification authority by inputting the new official's Post ID and remarks, clicking "Assign," and confirming with "Yes".
• Once sanctioned, the claim becomes available to the DDO (Drawing & Disbursing Officer) for execution.
• The DDO completes the disbursement workflow, which routes payment appropriately based on whether the employee uses a POSB (Post Office Savings Bank) account or an outside home bank account (Cheque Request).
