SSS FAQ: How do you apply for a SSS sickness benefit?
This is a simple question as it seems but there are a lot of considerations that you as a SSS member must know in order to qualify for the SSS sickness benefit program or avail one. My knowledge extends only to the list below, the SSS might have done some changes since so be sure to check out on their official website at sss.gov.ph.
1. You have to have at least 3 months consecutive payments or remittance paid to the SSS.
2. Your sickness or injury happened while you are on duty or at work and with the proper supporting documents ie. DTR as proof that you are at work when you incurred your injury or that there must be a doctor's certificate stating that you have been ill due to your nature of work or due to some factors attributing to your work area or environment.
3. At least 4 days of either confinement to the hospital due to work related factors or at home.
4. It is required that at least three months of contributions have been made under your account name with the SSS within the 12 month period immediately before the semester of sickness has been paid.
5. Applicable only when all company sick leave benefits with pay for the current year has been used up and the employer has been notified immediately.
6. For non-working (separated), voluntary or self-employed member, go to the nearest SSS directly to inquire.
(Note: We do not claim information listed here are absolutely correct and is still used today by the SSS. It is and will only be the SSS who knows what must be done for all unique cases of SSS sickness benefits claim by Social Security System members.

I had chickenpox for 15 days and was advised to home confinement. I am living alone here in the metro, feeling better i went back to work, i consumed my Vacation/Sick Leaves, i filed for SSS sickness benefit the day i reported back to work, but unfortunately, SSS disapproved my claim, because of 'LATE FILLING'? I am VERY DISAPPOINTED. How do you expect someone with chickenpox roaming around public office? Too bad, many jsut dont trust the "way government work".
sss policy is you should file your sickness notification within 5 days from the date of contigency. We should follow policies otherwise everything will be in chaos. I never had any problems with filing my sickness claims, even tooth extractiop, I was able to get reimbursement. The point here is, if you want to get paid, file your claims on time.
march 1 po ako start nagkaroon ng soreyes,inabot po ng 15 days ung pahinga ko bago ako pumasok sa trabaho...march 9 ko po bngay sa nurse nmn ung sickness notifacation ko...but until now wala pa...ask ko lng po kung ilang days or months ba bgo ma claim ung bayad sa sickness?

Can anyone give me my next procedure on my sickness notification benefit. I’m done already with all the requirement in the SSS office and they gave me back the sickness notification form. to whom or where is the next step, are there any other requirements or payments?
As per what is written on the sickness notification form, it should be 5 days right? but why did my employer told me i can still file it as long as its within 1 month from start fo sickness? which is which?

parang wala namang sumasagot sa katanungan ng mga tao sa forum no to eh! naglagay pa kyo ng ganitong feature sa site nyo di nyo rin nman papansin mga tanong ng mga tao!
tutal wala namang sumasagot ng mga tanong ng tao dito sa post na ito, nagpost ako ng comment kasi gusto ko lang dumagdag sa mga taong masama ang loob na nanakawan ng pera ng kumpanya sa sick leaves dahil sa maling pamamalakad. i filed my SSS sickness benefit on time and with the requirements and then my company tells me na hindi nila nai-file within five days. how sick is that.
ask ko lang if san ko pede i check if my sickness is already generated i already check to my sss account at benefit portion but the system declared me as no sickness claim..i file it last july29 i think 5 calendar days is enough to receive my sickness notification.
hope for your immediate reply!!!
as long as how many days po pwede magfile ng sss sickness notification start na magkasakit poh!
Re: Filing Sickness Notification
I would like to answer the questions regarding filing notification..when filing sickness notification it should be w/in 5 calendar days after the first day na nagkasakit ka..if you are employed, for example you had a fever August 18, 2011..dapat ma file or mabigay nang employer to SSS w/ in August 18, 2011 to August 23, 2011..after nila tatakan ang form, may ibibigay sila na cut-out from the same form & ilalagay nila kung kailan makuha nang employer for computation..kasi the doctor from SSS will approve how many days yung sickness mo..actually, depende kasi 'yan sa company..may iba na sila ang mgbabayad sa'yo tapos yung SSS na ang mg reimburse sa company..
is it still compensable by SSS if i also use my vacation leave on the same period? thanks
may sumasagot ng mga tanung nio? wala akong nkikitang feedback para sa mga tanung nio.... wala nman yata silang pakialam kasi di nman sila ang may kailangan.
ive been un employed since feb. 9, 2011 to sept. 13, 2011. i was hire last sept 14, 2011 up to present and i got hospitalized last dec. 9, 2011 until dec 12, 2011. my sss contribution is maximum, am i entitled to sss sickness benefit? thanks.
HOW LONG do we usually have to wait before our sickness benefit check arrive?? I live in ILigan City but i can't trace where my check is right now since our city postal office demands us to present the Registered number of the check which our SSS branch here could not provide. badly need help
Usually how long do Sickness Benefit checks arrive? I live in Iligan CIty and i've been waiting for my check for about a month already. I can't trace my check since the city postal office demands me to present the Registered Number which our SSS branch here in ILigan could not provide. please help
ask ko lng po kung meron n po sickness notification galing sa inyo c janice rosita.
wag na kayung magtanung walang kwenta walang sagut basta may magreklamo o magtanung dahil nagamit na nila pera natin
I just want know; that will this sickness benefit from SSS be the replacement of our sick leave in our company. I undergo for an open surgery for acute apendicitis, our accounting says will wait for the confirmation of SSS office, wow, I didn't receive any amount from our company.
Ang tawag sa denial ng sss benefits ay red tape! Mas madami disapprove, mas maganda sa sss. May chicken pox at sore eyes, natural mag tago ka muna. Sss kulang na kulang pa procedures nyo!!?!??!!!! Kontyaba nyo pa companies....ay naku. Ung 5 days notification gawin nyo 1 month!!!!
my doctor ask me to have bed rest for 1 wek.. due to my premature contraction and i have medecation for 1 wek. maaprove ba yon nang sss?
