Are you planning your future after retirement?
It is important to know how much pension amount you will receive when you’re past your prime so that you can make your retirement plan early; when you are still productive.
SSS Retirement Benefit Calculator
There is an easy way to know your pension even before you avail of it. Just go to the SSS website and access the SSS Retirement Benefit Calculator.
When you are already inside the SSS Retirement Benefit Calculator, enter your birth date, the year when you started paying your SSS contribution, and current monthly salary.
You also need to enter the Captcha Code and click the “Compute” button.
The SSS calculator will show you the pension amount you will receive if you retire at the age of 60 and another amount if you will avail of the pension at the age of 65.
