With this benefit of a regular paying member who is currently employed, you will get paid via SSS check by which you can encash in any government bank. Before, it was PNB that allows this type of service. Please ask in your nearest SSS branch about this matter if you are to avail or apply for SSS sickness benefit.
Please do note that you can only enjoy this benefit if you are currently employed because it will be your employer who will pay for your daily cash allowance through the Social Security System office by check issuance.

Dear Madam/ Sir,
Greetings!
I’m writing this letter to ask how much the minimum share for OFW? Last time I remember I paid 1500+ peso per month in 3 mos. but when I ask somebody who is also a OFW member they are just paying a minimum of 530 peso. and How I will change my previous share into minimum of 530 peso? also If my last share was last july 2011 how can I pay the succeeding mos. to update here in dubai.
Looking forward to hear from you.
With Kind Regards,
Sarah
