Pensioners whose date of contingency is from the first to the 15th day of the month and are receiving their pensions through PESONet participating banks, e-wallets such as PayMaya, or M Lhuillier, can expect that their January 2021 pensions will be credited to their accounts and may be withdrawn starting today.
The first batch of January 2021 pension releases covers 1.5 million pensioners with combined pensions for the month, amounting to P6.3 billion.
The SSS understands that pensioners rely on their SSS pensions for their financial needs. Thus, it made sure that the said pensions were credited as early as the said date to avoid delays in considering the coming non-working and regular holidays and weekend.
