Are you an SSS Member?

Yes?  Are you sure?

If you are sure.....  Why are you sure, or maybe i should ask, how are you sure?
The only real way to be sure is to check your SSS records.

You have got to be sure that your SSS records are correct.
If any of those records are in error, i guarantee that your claims for any and all benefits will take long because SSS  scrutinizes your records for every claim that you file ..... so DO NOT WAIT for a claim to clean-up your records

This is especially true for retirement claims.

First you have to check your personal details -
Is your name spelled correctly?  Is it complete?  Some members have double or triple names and your SSS records should reflect your legal name - your entire legal name.

Have you updated your E4?  Your E4 is the form that corrects personal details -
name, birthday, status (single, married, divorced, widowed), beneficiaries.
Remember many of these changes require proof of legality and correctness

Does your employer remit the proper contributions for you?
Remember, it could be an honest error on their part - and not because they are cheating you

It behooves you to check your contributions.

Are all your employers listed in your records?

Keeping your records straight will definitely facilitate the processing of your claims,
DO NOT wait until retirement before you check ..........
