Hi mommy 😊 Since EDD mo can be December 2026 or January 2027, dalawang possible qualifying periods ang kailangan tingnan:
– If December 2026 ang actual delivery: qualifying period is July 2025–June 2026
– If January 2027 ang actual delivery: qualifying period is October 2025–September 2026
Para maka-qualify, kailangan may at least 3 valid monthly contributions within the applicable qualifying period. Social Security System
So possible kang qualified, pero kailangan makita kung anong months ang may posted contributions mo. If you send the months + amount per month, mache-check natin kung qualified ka sa parehong December and January scenario.

Hi mommy 😊 If EDD mo was September 4 pero nanganak ka noong August 3, ang actual delivery date na August 3 ang gagamitin ng SSS.
Kung live birth po ang baby, ang maternity case type mo is Live Childbirth — kahit napaaga ang delivery. Covered pa rin ito ng 105 days maternity benefit, whether normal or CS. Social Security System
If this was August 3, 2026, ang qualifying period mo is April 2025–March 2026.

Hi mommy 😊 Para ma-estimate kung magkano ang maternity benefit mo, kailangan ko ang:
– EDD or actual delivery date
– Member type: Employee / Voluntary / Self-Employed / OFW / NWS
– Months na may posted contributions
– Contribution amount per month
SSS uses the 6 highest Monthly Salary Credits (MSC) within your qualifying period. For live childbirth, the benefit is generally computed for 105 days.

Hi mommy 😊 **Yes po, puwede mo nang i-file ang MatBen after delivery**.

Since **nanganak ka noong September 28**, you can now submit the **Maternity Benefit Application (MAT-2 equivalent)** online through **My.SSS**, provided kumpleto na ang required documents. For live childbirth, SSS requires the baby’s **Certificate of Live Birth registered with the Local Civil Registrar** (or PSA copy depending on filing timing) and the other applicable requirements.

If **Voluntary / Self-Employed / OFW / NWS / separated from employment**, ikaw mismo ang mag-file online and make sure may approved **DAEM bank/e-wallet account** ka for the benefit payment.

If **currently employed** ka, employer/HR ang normally magpo-process ng maternity benefit/reimbursement.
