SSS 13th Month Pension will be distributed starting December 1, 2023.
SSS 13TH MONTH PENSION – The Social Security System said that it will start releasing the 13th month pension to its pensioners on December 1, 2023.
The 13th month pension shall be received by all pensioners – including retiree pensioners and surviving pensioners, or those pensioners who accept pensions in lieu of their deceased family members.
In a report on GMA News Online, SSS Deputy Spokesperson Attorney Marissa Mapalo said during a public briefing on Friday that the distribution for the pensions will be on December 1, 2023 for pensioners with a date of contingency from 1 to 15, while the rest will be on December 4, 2023.
According to Mapalo, the amount pensioners get for their monthly pension will be equivalent to their 13th month pay.
Mapalo also said that the release of 13th month pension is systematically done and then pensioners will also get their 13th month pay together with the December pension if they regularly get their pension.
“Kung ano yung monthly pension na natatanggap nila, ito ay equivalent ng matatanggap nila bilang 13th month pay,” Mapalo said. “Systematic na yung pagrerelease namin kasi kasabay po yan ng aming December pension, so kung regularly natatanggap nila yang kanilang mga monthly pension, dapat po kasabay na 13th month pay ng kanilang December pension.”
Pensioners can call the SSS hotline at 81455 or they can send an email through ussssaptayo@sss.gov.ph should there be any problems with their pensions or pays.
Meanwhile, Alvin Elchico of ABS-CBN News reported that the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) will release the Christmas cash gift of up to PHP 10,000 to pensioners on the first week of December this year.
