How to Check Your Voluntary Contribution Record for 2026
Have you ever wondered if all your SSS voluntary contributions are properly posted and counted? For many freelancers, OFWs, or stay-at-home moms, checking your record is more than just a habit — it’s your proof of eligibility for future benefits, especially for SSS Maternity Benefits in 2026.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to check your SSS contribution record, spot any errors or missing months, and make sure everything is in order before your maternity application.
🌸 Why Checking Your Contribution Record Matters
Your SSS Maternity Benefit eligibility depends on the number and timing of your contributions. Even if you’ve been paying regularly, technical issues or payment posting delays can cause missing entries in your record.
Missing just a few months could lead to disqualification if they fall within your qualifying period.
💬 Tip: Always check your SSS record at least once every quarter — especially if you’re a voluntary member paying through online apps or remittance centers.
🧾 Where to Check Your SSS Voluntary Contribution Record
You have several options to check your contributions — both online and offline. Here’s how:
đź’» Option 1: Using My.SSS Online (Most Recommended)
Go to the official SSS website and click Member Login.
Log in using your SS Number and password.
Go to Inquiry → Contributions.
You’ll see a table showing:
Month and Year
Monthly Salary Credit (MSC)
Amount Paid
Payment Type (Regular SS or MPF)
Review if your payments are complete and properly reflected.
âś… Pro Tip: Screenshot or download a copy of your contribution list every few months for your personal record.
📱 Option 2: Using the SSS Mobile App
Download the SSS Mobile App on iOS or Android.
Log in with your My.SSS credentials.
Tap Contribution → View Details.
Check if your latest payments are already posted.
This option is perfect for busy moms and freelancers who want quick access anytime.
🏦 Option 3: Visiting an SSS Branch
If you encounter missing months or wrong entries, you can:
Bring your valid ID and proof of payment (PRN receipts).
Visit the nearest SSS branch.
Ask for a Contribution Verification Printout.
đź’¬ SSS may take a few days to update payments, especially from partner payment centers.
🔍 How to Identify Missing or Unposted Contributions
When reviewing your record, look for blank months or “0” entries. These usually mean:
The payment wasn’t properly credited (missing PRN or wrong member type).
The payment was late and therefore not counted.
A system delay from the payment partner.
If this happens, check your Payment Reference Number (PRN) receipts and verify them with SSS.
⚠️ Important: SSS does not accept retroactive payments for missed months. You can only pay the current or upcoming quarter.
🧮 How Your Contribution Record Affects Maternity Eligibility
Your record must show at least three (3) valid monthly contributions within your 12-month qualifying period before your expected delivery date (EDD).
Clarisse resigned from her office job in 2025 and started paying as a voluntary member. When she checked her My.SSS account in 2026, she found one unpaid month that could affect her qualification. She immediately paid the next quarter before the deadline and qualified for her ₱70,000 maternity benefit.
Rowena’s Story – OFW from Dubai
Rowena paid through a remittance center abroad, but one of her payments wasn’t posted. She noticed it while checking her record through the SSS app. After submitting her PRN receipt via email to SSS, the missing month was credited — saving her maternity eligibility.
Leah’s Story – Market Vendor from Iloilo
Leah’s EDD was August 2026. When she reviewed her record at the SSS branch, she saw all her payments were complete from April 2025 to March 2026. Because she monitored regularly, her maternity claim was approved without delay.
