The Social Security System (SSS) is a government body that gets contributions from your monthly salary. It is a mandate that you should have an SSS number along with the Tax Identification Number (TIN) , and Pag-IBIG number . The SSS offices are often filled with employees, retirees, and different people who yearn to apply for different reasons. Because of the modern technology, people can now get their temporary Social Security numbers through the Internet – and here is how:
This is basic information like your name, your address, your parent’s name, etc. After accomplishing this, an email will be sent to the registrar’s email which will then lead them to the second step. Be informed that the email will expire in exactly five (5) days from the day they apply.
Step 3: Supply all the required information From the email that was sent to the registrants’ email, there is a link you can click to redirect you to another information field. Accomplish all of the required fields correctly, including the beneficiaries and other important details, check the spelling and the data you entered before clicking on the “Generate SS Number” button.
Step 4: You now have your SSS number After filling out all the needed information, the website will then provide you with your SS number but this will be marked as temporary. In order for it to be permanent, registrants must go to the nearest SSS branch to submit all the required documents.
Step 5: Print and Submit Print the Personal Record Form, SS Number Slip with the SSS Number Application Confirmation email body. After the system has generated your number, print out all of these forms to submit to the nearest SSS branch.
If the registrant is married, he/she must bring their PSA marriage certificate . If the registrant has a child or children, he/she must bring his/her child/ren’s PSA birth certificates .
