SSS – Survivorship

Survivorship Pension Sharing

Survivorship Pension Sharing refers to how a deceased member’s monthly pension is distributed among qualified dependents. The legal spouse receives the basic monthly pension, while dependent children receive additional shares. Illegitimate children receive half the share of legitimate or adopted children.

If multiple dependents qualify, the pension is proportionally divided according to SSS rules. The spouse retains their share unless disqualified due to remarriage or cohabitation.

This sharing structure ensures fair and equitable distribution of benefits to all eligible dependents.
