Sir,
I an working in Centre Govt department as Senior Assistant. My retirement is on June 2012. My hunsband was retired from Army in 1993 and he died on Jan 2001. Now I got his family pension wef Feb 2001. When I file income tax return, I never show this family pension from Feb 2001. Now If I show this income from orther sources in current return, Is my department or Income tax department questions me about this ? Please tell me what I have to do now ?

You should file Income Tax Return based on all your income including the Family Pension. If the department ask question and want to re-open the case, you have to pay the arrear tax along with interst.
