If I am not mistaken, SSS maternity benefits are given after birth. You have to present the birth certificate of the child after birth. However, you have to apply first before you give birth. Visit SSS so you can process your papers.

i am not yet a mother but i know about it. in my company the sss maternity benefit is giving the half of the money one month before giving birth. and the other half after giving birth. ask some information to those pople who are in charge on it on your work.

Hi, thanks for that information. I will check on that in our HRDS or Personnel Office so that I will be able to process the necessary papers needed before I give birth. Thanks again.

Hi! I think SSS will pay you equal to the average per day of your contribution, if the delivery is normal that's equivalent to sixty calendar days, if CS it's seventy calendar days. The count starts from the day you give birth. Hope that helps

thank you so much for what you have shared. I am not very familiar with this since this is my first.
