Beneficiary Disqualification refers to conditions that remove eligibility for SSS survivorship benefits. Spouses may be disqualified due to remarriage, cohabitation, abandonment, bigamous relationships, or fraudulent claims. Children may be disqualified if they marry, become employed, or reach age 21 without disability.
Parents may be disqualified if dependency cannot be proven or if they previously relinquished parental responsibility.
Understanding disqualification rules helps ensure that benefits are granted fairly and only to individuals who meet SSS standards.
Hospital delivery in the Philippines can easily cost ₱60,000 - ₱200,000 depending on the hospital and type of delivery.
Many parents use a credit card to manage these expenses while waiting for their SSS maternity benefits.
