Security System is now issuing the new Unified Multipurpose Identification

give uncomplicated and convenient transaction for members.
My eldest son applied
for the new ID, and it took two months before it was delivered right at our
doorsteps.
Any SSS member can file
and avail of the new ID, just fill up the form E-6 using black ink then submit
it to the nearest SSS Office that has facilities for SSS ID data capture. You
also need to submit documentary requirements together with the form E-6, so
bring along any of the primary documents, such as:
·
Passport
·
Professional
Regulation Commission (PRC) card

In the absence of any of
these documents, the applicant may present any two of the following documents,
provided at least one document contains the applicant's photograph:

Upon submission of your
application, the SSS office will obtain your personal data - your fingerprints,
facial image, signature, and personal identification number which will be
electronically recorded for transfer to your new ID card. The ID card will be processed
within 30 days and will be mailed to the address you specified in the form E-6.
As it is issued free for

This reminds me, I need to get a new SSS ID! :))
Thanks for sharing these info Ate Joy! Mabilis na pala ngayon kase your son got his ID in 2 months. This is surely an important thing to have.
I have the old SSS card but the new one looks way better. Maybe I should have mine replaced.
hope everything gets better aside from the Id? Muy Guapito en litrato! hihi Seriously though, it's commendable that the SSS is taking changes, this could be a start...
I want to apply for this new SSS ID. I have my old one and since I 'm not working anymore, I would like to update my status. Last time my husband inquired for my contributions, my ex-job remitted only up to January 2004 but I resigned March 2008. I still don't have any idea as to how I can update my premiums.
Just got mine and I look terrible on it lol Won't be showing that ID to anyone unless really needed :)
Thanks for the info Mommy. My in-laws applied for the SSS ID last year and it took them almost a year to receive it. I am yet to apply for my new ID, my old one was still in my maiden name.
How will they know your Pag-ibig and Phil Health number?
hmm.. i want to have that new one. it looks better. hehe.. hope we'll have time to process it in case we go home this christmas.
I got mine too. It takes only 2 months since I applied for this new SSS ID. I am eager to have it this Christmas Holidays. I am very excited! You guys should have this new one too...
