Mandatory SSS Pension Booster

Formerly known as the Workers’ Investment and Savings Program (WISP), this is mainly for employed members contributing to the regular SSS program at a Monthly Salary Credit (MSC) that exceeds ₱20,000.00 and who have not yet filed a final benefit claim. Any amount contributed exceeding the ₱20,000 MSC is automatically contributed to the member’s Mandatory MySSS Pension
Booster account. The monthly contribution is divided between the employer and the employee.

Voluntary MySSS Pension Booster

This is the rebranded WISP Plus, which is open to all SSS members regardless of their MSC, with one (1) posted contribution, and without filed final benefit claim, and for those applying for the issuance of the Social Security (SS) Number.

While the Voluntary MySSS Pension Booster is open to all types of SSS members, it specifically targets mid- to high-income earners who have the financial capacity to invest more, such as self-employed and maritime professionals, overseas Filipino workers (OFWs), and corporate executives, among others. By investing their excess incomes, these members stand to receive higher savings returns and increased retirement income in the future.

Here are the most notable features of the Voluntary MySSS Pension Booster:

• Affordable savings scheme. Under the Voluntary MySSS Pension Booster, members may contribute as low as ₱500.00 per payment, with no maximum limit (depending on the SSS-partner collecting agent).
• High return of investment. In 2023, the fund for the voluntary retirement savings scheme reached ₱386 million, with ROI of 6.97%. This year, the SSS targets to reach 7.2% interest rate.
• Tax-free investment. Total contribution and investment earnings under the MySSS Pension Booster (both mandatory and voluntary) are tax free.
• Easy and fast posting of contributions. Contributions can be made online through the SSS website, SSS Mobile App, or SSS’ Collection Partners’ app using a Payment Reference Number (PRN), or over the counter through SSS branches with tellering facilities or collections partners’ branch/office (local or abroad).
• Flexible payment terms. Members can contribute anytime depending on their capacity to save. However, payment to Voluntary MySSS Pension Booster contributions must be done together with their regular SSS contributions.
• Easy access to MySSS Pension Booster records. Members can easily monitor their contributions through their individual My.SSS accounts as posting of contributions is real-time! Very soon, investment income shall also be visible in their My.SSS account.
• Receive the total accumulated value (principal & investment income) taxfree! This is paid out as a pension, as lump sum, or a combination of both, and on top of their final benefit under the regular SSS program.

Other benefits include:
‣ Members have the option to withdraw, partially or in full, their savings from MySSS Pension Booster, from the fifth year in the program onwards.
‣ Members enrolled in the program for two to four years, are also allowed to withdraw their savings partially or in full, but with a reduced income depending on the years of membership.
‣ Withdrawal is allowed on the first year, but only in case of member’s extreme hardship situation such as critical illness, involuntary separation from employment, repatriation from the
host country (if an OFW), and other similar situations as determined by the SSS.

NOW, MAKE THAT MOVE!

• Employed members who are earning ₱20,000 and above are automatically enrolled in the Mandatory MySSS Pension Booster. Their contributions, along with their employer’s share, are included in the monthly SSS remittance by their companies.
• Other SSS membership types (Self-Employed/Voluntary Member/OFW) may enroll to the Voluntary MySSS Pension Booster through their individual My.SSS accounts. Just log in to your account, click “Enroll to MySSS Pension Booster (Voluntary)” under the Services tab, then read
  and accept the terms and conditions of the program.

Here are the steps on how to check your estimated SSS Pension:

Go to www.sss.gov.ph or click this link. No need to log-in to you account to check your estimated pension. Access the pension calculator by scrolling down the sss home page and on the white background with images, click the third from the left with label “PENSION CALCULATOR”.

It will open a new tab. There are 2 drop down buttons. One is to select your “Monthly SSS Contributions or Monthly Salary”. The minimum that you can select is “P560 contribution => P4,000 salary and the maximum is “P2,800 contribution => P20,000 salary”. Note that the option below pertains to the current choices as of this writing. The other one is to select the “Age when you start contributing to SSS”. It ranges from 15-59 years old. There are two buttons below. One is calculate button and other one is the reset button.

For example, you selected “P560 contribution => P4,000 salary” and selected 20 years old when you start contributing to SSS. After clicking the “calculate” button, as per the pension calculator, the estimated monthly pension will be P4,500 per month. Total contributions paid is the contributions you paid from the age of 20 to 60 years old. Therefore the total count of contributions is 480 months = 40 years x 12 months. Multiply that to 560 pesos and the total will be P268,800.

The total pension you will received after 10 years is P585,000 because 10 years multiplied by 13 months (12 months + 1 month bonus) will be 130. If you receive 4,500 as your monthly pension, multiply it to 130 and the result will be P585,000. Based on this calculation, you will immediately know that the total amount of pension received after 10 years is way greater than the amount of your contribution. On this example it has a difference of P317,000. Because of this, the difference is much greater after 20 years.

When you Click “Click here for more detailed information”, you will see the details of your contribution with the following assumptions:

• Contribution rate remains at 14%
• Has no gap from the start of contribution to end
• Monthly Salary Credit remains the same
• 13 month pension amount is included in the Total Amount of Pension Benefit
• Minimum of contributions should be 120 for qualification of pension

They have noted below that the “Estimated monthly pension is merely indicative, actual pension will depend on actual pattern and amount of contributions.”. Therefore this is only an estimate of your pension and not the actual pension itself to give you an idea of how much your pension based on your contribution and age.
