Question from Jennylyn

Hinulugan ko ang november and december ng feb 2 late payment naba siya

Answer from SSS Maternity Calculator Team Answered Jul 29, 2026

Hi mommy 😊 Depende sa member type at year, pero kung Voluntary/SE/NWS ka at ang binayaran mo ay November at December contribution, usually kasama sila sa October–December quarter.

Ang normal deadline ng Oct–Dec quarter ay January 31 ng next year. Pero kung ang January 31 ay Saturday/Sunday/holiday, pwede pa ang payment sa next working day.

So kung ang payment mo ay February 2 at iyon ang next working day, possible na hindi late at counted pa, basta valid PRN at posted sa My.SSS.

Pero for maternity benefit, kailangan din na ang payment date ay before the semester of contingency mo. Pakicheck mommy sa My.SSS kung posted ang Nov–Dec, at kung may EDD ka, gamitin ang calculator para makita kung counted siya.

Answer from SSS Maternity Calculator Team Answered Sep 12, 2026

Hi mommy 😊 For EDD May 2027, ang qualifying period mo ay January–December 2026, so July 2026 ✅ counted sa MatBen computation.

Kung Voluntary/NWS member ka, puwede pa ang July contribution as part of the July–September quarter, payable on or before end of September 2026 this is for Matben Due date pero normaly sa SSS contribution kapag nag Generate ka ng PRN ang lalabas na Due date is on or before end of October. Kung Matben claim ka Mommy make sure mahulugan mo yan on or before end of September or as early as possible bago matapos ang last month ng Qualifying Period mo.

Question

Voluntary Contribution / Payment Deadline EDD: July 2020
Question from Mommy
Sep 8, 2026

EDD of ectopic pregnancy July 20,2020 tapos may hulog ako january hanggang june 2020

Answer from SSS Maternity Calculator Team Answered Sep 12, 2026

Hi mommy 😊 If ang actual ectopic pregnancy/termination date mo ay July 20, 2020, ang qualifying period mo ay April 2019–March 2020.

So sa contributions na sinabi mo:

January 2020 ✅ counted
February 2020 ✅ counted
March 2020 ✅ counted
April–June 2020 ❌ hindi na kasama sa qualifying period

If valid at properly paid ang January–March 2020, mayroon kang required 3 qualifying contributions, so possible kang qualified for SSS maternity benefit for 60 days dahil covered ang ectopic pregnancy under miscarriage/ETP benefits.

Good news din mommy: SSS maternity claims may be filed within 10 years from the date of miscarriage/ETP, so kung July 20, 2020 ang actual date, possible pa ring mag-file ngayon subject to SSS validation and complete medical documents.

Check your EDD, member type, months & deadlines
Your July 2020 EDD and Voluntary member type are already selected. Confirm the details to see the contribution months SSS may count and the next step that applies to you.

Question

General Question EDD: November 2026
Question from Mommy
Sep 6, 2026

EDD ko November 22, 2026 private employed kailan ko po makukuha yung maternity benefits ko

Answer from SSS Maternity Calculator Team Answered Sep 7, 2026

Hi mommy 😊 Since private employed ka, employer mo ang mag-a-advance ng SSS maternity benefit.

For EDD November 22, 2026, ang qualifying period mo ay July 2025–June 2026. If qualified ka based sa contributions mo, ang full maternity benefit should be advanced by the employer within 30 days from the filing of your maternity leave application.

So hindi po automatic na after November 22 mo pa makukuha. Ang timing depends sa date na officially na-file mo ang maternity leave application sa employer/HR.

You can ask HR:
“Kailan po considered filed ang maternity leave application ko, and kailan po target release ng advance MatBen?”
