How to Check SSS Contributions Online
The Social Security System (SSS) provides Filipino workers with financial security in times of need. To qualify for benefits like loans, pensions, and insurance, members must diligently monitor their contributions. This guide will walk you through the process of checking your SSS payments online.
Why You Should Regularly Check Your Contributions
Monitoring contributions ensures you are eligible for SSS benefits when you need them most. Here are some key reasons to check often:
- Verify your employer is remitting the right amounts on time. Late or short payments can impact your eligibility.
- Catch any mistakes early as a self-employed or voluntary member so you can correct them.
- Qualify for loans and claims by meeting minimum monthly contribution requirements.
- Avoid penalties from lapses in payments if unemployed or shifting jobs.
- Ensure funds are being deposited correctly into retirement savings accounts like WISP.
