posted MSC corresponds to the maximum MSC under the immediately preceding
Schedule of Contributions.

What services are exempt from
compulsory coverage as employee?
▪ J.O./casual employment (gov’t)
▪ government service
▪ employment of single proprietor
in his own business

How can a member remove their
legal spouse as their beneficiary?
To be able to remove a legal spouse as
a beneficiary, the member must
accomplish the SSS E-4 Form and submit
the Decree of Legal separation as a
supporting document.

Are employer branches with decentralized
operations required to register under a
separate ER number?
No. An employer branch will be issued a 13-digit

Employer Branch Code, as follows:
01-1234567-8 001 La Union

01-1234567-8 002 Mandaue

When a member loses his SS ID card or
cannot remember his SS number, should
he/she secure another SS number?
No. The SS number assigned to a member is his/her
lifetime number which must always be used in all his
transactions with the SSS. He/She should never secure
another SS Number, as having more than one SS
Number will cause delay in the processing of claim for
benefits or loans in the future.

Does SSS issue temporary number?
No. The SS number assigned to a
member is his lifetime number. The
“temporary SS No.” flag is simply an
indicator that the registrant did not
submit the required document/s at the
time of registration.

Does a separated member need to fill
out any form to continue paying as
voluntary members?
No. He/She just need to pay his/her SS
contributions under the membership type of a
“voluntary member”. She/He can get the Payment
Reference Number (PRN) via his/her My.SSS
account or mobile app or visit the nearest SSS
office convenient to him/her and request for the
printing of PRN.

If the member has multiple employers, what will
happen to his/her contributions paid by different
employers?
These contributions will be posted and
consolidated as one contribution of the
member. Every January of the following
applicable year, the member shall request
for consolidation of contributions and
possible refund of excess employee share.

Can a member pay for their contributions
for the previous months/years?
No. Missed months shall remain
as payment gaps since
retroactive payments are not
allowed.
155
What should a member do if an employer
does not remit the contributions they have
deducted from the EE’s salary?
He/She can visit any SSS Branch to file a
complaint against his/her employer and bring
documentary proofs of employment (e.g.,
payslip, company ID, etc.) It is, however,
advisable to go to concerned SSS branch which
has jurisdiction over the employer’s principal
place of business to expedite the process.

Can a foreigner paying SSS contributions file for a
refund of his/her contributions if he/she is
permanently leaving the Philippines?
No. He/She will follow Philippine law,
rules, and regulations that no refund of
his/her contributions be made. He/She,
however, can file for a retirement
benefit (monthly pension or lump sum)
upon reaching 60 years of age.

How will a member pay for an
underpaid contribution?
Members may pay their underpaid
contributions over the counter.
Settlement of underpayments
cannot be made thru PRN.
