Question
Before i am an employee but not until august i dont have an employer because i stop working. What will i put employee ? Or voluntary?
Hi mommy 😊 Since wala ka nang employer starting August, Voluntary na po ang appropriate membership type kung gusto mong ipagpatuloy ang sarili mong SSS contributions.
Hindi mo kailangang manatiling “Employee” just because iyon pa ang nakikita sa account. SSS says that a previously employed member who is already separated from employment may continue as Voluntary. When generating your PRN in My.SSS, choose “Voluntary” as the membership type; no supporting document is normally required just to make that change.
Yung mga contributions mo noong employed ka remain on your SSS record and can still be counted for MatBen if pasok sila sa qualifying period. Hindi sila mawawala dahil nag-change ka to Voluntary.
So mommy:
Before August → Employee contributions ✅
August onward, since wala ka nang employer → Voluntary ✅
If this is for your maternity benefit, send me your EDD, and I can tell you exactly which months is your qualifying period at kung may mga months kapa na pwede mahulugan.
SSS requires atleast 3 months posted contribution para ma qualify ka sa matben.
