Official 3-formula method + ₱1,000 add-on

SSS Pension Calculator

Estimate your monthly retirement pension. SSS computes three formulas and pays the highest — enter your average monthly salary credit and your credited years of service.

Estimate only — SSS computes your official pension from your actual posted contribution history at claim time. Legislated pension increases are applied by SSS on top when they take effect.

How the SSS pension is computed

SSS runs your record through three formulas and pays whichever is highest:

Formula 1: ₱300 + (20% × AMSC) + (2% × AMSC × credited years beyond 10)
Formula 2: 40% × AMSC
Formula 3: the statutory minimum pension

On top of the winning formula, every pensioner receives the ₱1,000 across-the-board addition, and a 13th month pension every December. Long careers win with Formula 1 — each credited year beyond 10 adds 2% of your AMSC to the pension, permanently.

Worked example

AMSC ₱20,000 · 30 years₱300 + ₱4,000 + ₱8,000 = ₱12,300₱8,000₱13,300
AMSC ₱15,000 · 15 years₱300 + ₱3,000 + ₱1,500 = ₱4,800₱6,000₱7,000

Pension FAQ

How is the pension computed?

The highest of the three formulas above, plus ₱1,000 across-the-board, plus a 13th month pension in December.

How many contributions do I need?

120 monthly contributions (10 credited years). Fewer than that = lump sum instead of a pension.

What is AMSC exactly?

Your average monthly salary credit — SSS uses the higher of the last-60-months average or your whole-career average, so late-career MSC increases help.

When can I retire?

At 60 if you've stopped working, at 65 regardless.

Is there a 13th month pension?

Yes — every December.

What about WISP?

If your MSC exceeded ₱20,000, your WISP account pays out at retirement on top of the pension.
