SSS Retirement Benefits Lump Sum & Pension

Based on the official website of the Social Security System, here are the guidelines on who are qualified to avail an SSS lump sum or a monthly pension which are the retirement benefits offered:

SSS Pension

An SSS member who has paid at least 120 monthly contributions is eligible for a monthly pension. The following are covered under this retirement benefit:

  • a 60-year-old member who got separated from work or stopped being self-employed
  • a 65-year-old member who is still working
  • underground mine workers aging 55-60 years old and are set to retire not earlier than March 13,1998
  • underground or surface mine workers aging 50-60 years old and are set to retire from work not earlier than April 27, 2016
  • racehorse jockeys aging 55 years old and are set to retire not earlier than May 24, 2016

SSS Lump Sum

Those SSS members who have reached the retirement age but have not reached 120 total monthly contributions to the social insurance institution may get a lump sum as a retirement benefit. It is a one-time payment that is equal to amount posted by the member and his or her employer(s) plus the interest.
