When Do Members Become Eligible for Social Security Benefits?
Facts About SSS Membership Eligibility, Benefits, Retirement, Contribution and Coverage
Many SSS members misquote the fact that benefits of the SSS is directly in accord to having a SS number. In fact, in order for any member of the Social Security System to become eligible to qualify to enjoy or avail of any benefit, he has to be employed first in an occupation. This is apart from securing, applying or getting a permanent SS number. The employer must also be subject to and have to report the employee / member application for his SSS coverage. In short, applying and securing a SSS number will not qualify any member to eligibility of enjoying all or any of the member benefits listed by this government agency in the Philippines.
We Value Your SSS Coverage

There are certain qualifications though as required by the Social Security System for members in order to avail or qualify to apply availment of specific Social Security benefits.
The contributions that a member remits become savings in the future. This contribution will be counted based on months of years as a basis in order for any member to qualify for the grant of SSS benefits in times of emergency or any contingency. Another fact to realize for all active and non active contributing members is that all contributions paid cannot be refunded at any given time during or prior to retirement or reaching retirement age as stated in the Philippine Laws governing social security. Also, your membership cannot be withdrawn at any given time and circumstance except in an event of death or demise of the said member.
