   If you don't have a primary ID, present two secondary IDs, both bearing your name and signature, with at least one having your photo.

    

🗓️ Application Steps

1. Schedule an Appointment

   Log in to your My.SSS account and set an appointment at your preferred SSS branch.

2. Visit the SSS Branch

   On your appointment date, bring your completed application form and valid IDs.

3. Biometric Data Capture

   At the branch, your photo, fingerprints, and signature will be captured.

4. Acknowledgment Stub

   After completing the process, you'll receive a stub as proof of your application.

    

💳 UMID-ATM Pay Card Option

You can opt to have your UMID card function as an ATM card for receiving SSS benefits and loans. Indicate your preferred SSS-accredited bank on the application form. You'll claim the UMID-ATM card at the bank's branch and enroll it via the Disbursement Account Enrollment Module in your My.SSS account. ​

 

🕒 Processing Time

The UMID card is typically processed and delivered within 30 to 45 days. If you haven't received it within this period, check the status through your My.SSS account or contact the SSS branch where you applied.
