Retrenched, made redundant, or your company closed? SSS pays half your average monthly salary credit for two months in one lump sum.
Capped at ₱20,000 for the computation.
For involuntary separation only — resignation doesn't qualify. File within one year, claimable once every three years.
Two useful companions while between jobs: your prorated final pay (13th month included) from your last employer, and switching to voluntary contributions so your pension years don't stop counting.
50% of AMSC × 2 months, lump sum — up to ₱20,000 total.
No — involuntary separation only (authorized causes).
36 posted total, 12 within the 18 months before separation.
DOLE certification + employer notice of the cause; file via My.SSS.
File within 1 year; claim at most once every 3 years.
No — it's insurance, not a withdrawal.
