ProcedureEdit


This procedure explains various ways to Obtain a Social Security System card in Bacolod.

Apply In-PersonEdit

  1. Following are procedures on how you can apply for a Social Security System Card or UMID (Unified Multi-Purpose ID) Card. In case you are confused, the following government agencies: SSS, GSIS, PhilHealth and Pag-IBIG now issues UMID cards. Instead of asking members to apply for four different ID cards from each of those agencies, they decided to just issue one card which members can then use in transacting with the agencies mentioned. So, when you apply for a SSS Card the form that you would be asked to complete is a Unified Multi-Purpose ID (UMID) Card Application. The form is available through SSS's website. A link is provided under 'Documents to Use' section which you can click to download the form. You can also ask for a copy of the form from any SSS branch that process UMID applications.
  2. When you fill out the form make sure to write your correct and complete mailing address. For the "Type of card application" item, tick the 'INITIAL ENROLLMENT' Box. You may also request for a UMID Card that can be used as an ATM Card as well. For this you will also need to tick the 'UMID Card as ATM Card' box and provide the name of the bank and the branch.
  3. Please note that not all SSS branches process UMID applications. Before you visit a SSS branch inquire first (online or via phone) if they have UMID Card Enrollment Facility in their branch. You can also check out this link - SSS Branches with UMID Enrollment Facilities.
  4. At the SSS office, submit your completed application form and present a valid ID.
  5. After reviewing your documents, the SSS representative will ask you to go to the booth where they will take your photo, scan your fingerprints, and save your digital signature. You may now go home after this process.
  6. Wait for the SMS notification form SSS informing you that your UMID card is now ready for pick up.
  7. Collecting your card:
    • If you applied for a UMID Card as ATM card, you need to claim your card at the bank branch you wrote in your application. You must claim your card within thirty (30) days upon receipt of SMS notification from SSS.
    • For regular UMID card, claim your card at the SSS branch where you applied. You must claim your card within sixty (60) days upon receipt of SMS notification from SSS.
