TEMPORARY SSS NUMBER STATUS to PERMANENT
Online registration for SSS number has a temporary status. You can only make it permanent by visiting an SSS branch and submitting the required IDs and documents as well as your printed SSS Number slip.
Bring at least 2 valid IDs when you go to SSS. For a list of acceptable IDs for SSS transactions visit this article.
The SSS personnel will verify your identity through the IDs and documents submitted vis a vis the submitted details on your online registration for an SSS number.
Once your number becomes permanent, it means you have also been accepted as a bonafide member of SSS. You can begin to enjoy the benefits and privileges of being an SSS member provided that you will begin to pay the required members’ monthly contribution or premium payments.
Additional document(s) required:
For married applicants – Marriage Contract copy; if you have an NSO issued Marriage Certificate bring that.
For married applicants with children – Bring a copy of the birth certificates of your children.
For non-working married applicants who applied for voluntary or self-employed SSS membership – Instruct your spouse to sign before his or her name on the Personal Record form. His or her signature is needed to confirm that your spouse agrees to your SSS Membership application.
Advantage of online SSS new number application
For those interested to apply for an SSS number, the online application facility is fast and very convenient. You can already fill up the SSS Personal Record form ahead of time.

I want to know my sss number

Visit a branch of SSS, bring IDs. Or try to call SSS hotline, but you have to be ready to answer personal questions and details of your SSS contributions to establish that you are who you claim you are and not some poser.
Dwight says
hello, i have a problem with the email field, it says “email already registered….”
i tried another email and even create new email but it won’t accept it… is there a problem with the site??
iSensey says
Hi Dwight, try to register again this time try a different web browser (or you can try to delete cache ng current browser mo, baka mag-work). Internet Explorer ang recommended ng SSS website.
Or another option would be, if the system says your email is already registered, click the Forget Password link para may email kang matanggap to reset new password.
Brynn Villanueva says
I only have my E-1 form available with me. I want to register online in My.SSS but it requires all these:
-Savings acct number -mobile number registered in SSS
-UMID -employer ID and PRN
but unfortunately I don’t have any of these or forgot all these. I am an OFW and I want to activate my account.

Hi Mechelle, malamang nag-apply nya sya dati for an SSS number. If nakapagtrabaho na sya dati, baka yung old employer nya, iniapply sya. Best to go to SSS branch to sort the record nang friend mo.
aires lomoljo says
how to proceed for getting sss number i cannot continue bacause i have a pending application, and i forgot the last email add
iSensey says
Hi Aires, try to contact SSS directly for your concern. If you can get ahold of the local SSS branch mas mabuti, try to find their email para may paper trail ka when you submit your concern via email. You can also contact SSS hotline kaso based on experience, ang hirap pumasok sa toll free hotline nila na 1-800-10- 2255777.

ritchel says
Good afternoon ma’am ask Lang po ako nag pa online register Yong cousin Ko and then nag ok na Yong transaction Kaya Lang Hindi po ako nkatanggap Ng sss confirmation number Sa email Ko kaya Hindi Ko alam Kong among sss number Ko.tapos na po ako nag email Sa knila pero hangang ngayon wala reply pwede po bah mag register ulit?
iSensey says
Hi Ritchel, if bago ka palang nag online register, wait mo muna mga 7 working days, kasi busy usually lagi ang system ng SSS.
Pag lagpas na sa 7 working days at walang email or txt confirmation, we suggest to call up SSS, yung branch nearest your place.
Wag ka muna mag register ulit hanggang di ka nakatanggap ng confirmation from SSS or nakausap ang taga SSS, para iwas duplicate numbers.

iSensey says
Hi Mary Grace, best is to call SSS hotline to ask them paano mag proceed on your case. Or if may malapit na SSS branch, you may visit it so you can speak with their personnel.
