How SSS Pension is Computed
Your pension is based on this formula (simplified):
Option 1: ₱300 + (20% of your Average Monthly Salary Credit) + ₱2,000
Option 2: 40% of your Average Monthly Salary Credit
Option 3: Minimum pension (₱1,200 – ₱2,400 depending on contributions)
SSS will give you the highest value among these options.
