P-NOY vetos 2000-across-the-board-SSS-pension increase

It is official.  There is no across-the-board-increase for SSS pensioners.

P-Noy opted for the SSS long-term financial viability rather than the immediate relief of SSS pensioners.

Are you waiting for the SSS Project on Manual Verification?

If yes, well........   SSS has not yet made any announcements regarding the completion of this project.
Members and SSS-watchers will note that SSS said that the target is end of December.  They really didnt promise it would be finished.  As I remember it, it was a best-effort estimate.

Well, perhaps the project isnt quite finished yet.  
I have always thought that it would be better to get the retirement benefits sans the 5-years  and then have the claim readjudicated once the smoke clears.  At least there would already be a pension.

At any rate, just wait for the SSS announcement.

A friend of mine at SSS tells this story about a pensioner who called..... following-up her adjustment and told her that SHE wanted to kill all the SSS employees,

If you are a pensioner, do not threaten the employees.  If you lose their sympathy, then you cant blame them for losing impetous and zeal in seeking a resolution.  More flies with honey, remember.
