Claim requirements checking is the process where SSS ensures that all required documents for a claim have been submitted and meet authenticity standards. Each claim type has a unique checklist, and missing requirements often cause delays or disapproval.
During this stage, examiners verify whether forms are properly signed, medical certificates are valid, PSA documents are intact, and employer submissions match SSS records. Claims lacking requirements are returned to the member with instructions for correction.
Members can reduce delays by reviewing SSS checklists before filing and ensuring that all submitted paperwork is accurate and complete.
