      It is very unfortunate that you have not received a response from SSS. Unfortunately, we are not a direct channel of support for program participants. the Social Security System (SSS) has established an OFW Contact Service Unit to cater to the needs of OFW beneficiaries and their families.

      They can be reached through various communication channels, such as:
      Messaging platforms: Line, Viber, or WeChat
      Contact Numbers: (632) 364-7796, (532) 354-7795, Globe (63) 977 804-8668, Smart (63) 998 847-4092
      Email Address: [email protected]

  3. Hi Sir/Ma’am:
    Why was my monthly retirement pension reduced by P1,307 when I reached 65 y.o. this September? Is this the SSS policy?
    Thanks.
    Bong

    1. Good day, Bong. Your monthly retirement pension may have been reduced to adjustments in SSS policies or changes in how your pension is calculated based on your contributions. I recommend contacting SSS directly for clarification on your specific situation.
