So when my husband can’t find his SSS ID, I know that he would have a hard time to replace it. My sister waited for almost two years before she got her SSS ID.
Anyway, because of the Papal Visit, all employees in Metro Manila has no work so he took advantage the holiday to replace his SSS ID. I checked the requirements for lost SSS ID.
REQUIREMENTS FOR LOST SSS ID
Affidavit of Loss
SSS Form E-6 form
2 Valid ID’s (I photocopy his Driver’s License and Passport)
SSS Form R-6 form
P300
My husband left the house past 8AM and I was surprised that he went home at 11AM. He went first to Attorney’s Office to get his affidavit of loss, he paid P150 for the document and went to SSS office. Since the SSS branch does not accept payments, he still went to the accredited bank to pay the P300.
Now, we have to wait for 2-3months for his UMID (Universal Multipurpose ID). I’m glad that the process is not complicated anymore, no more long lines that I’ve experienced before.
Update:
Last month, I told my husband to follow up his SSS ID because it is beyond 90 days already. I suggested to email or call the SSS branch.
Email your complete name, SSS number, date of birth and date of application to sss_id@sss.gov.ph.
But he was too preoccupied that he was not able to do anything. Today, I received the SSS ID. I checked the postage stamp.

This is a helpful post. I know someone who has lost an SSS ID and ill let her know about this :)
ReplyDeleteThis so helpful! it count down the waiting time dibah. I'll be sharing this information to my sister Sis Thank you so much.:)
ReplyDeleteThis is so informative. Thanks! But now, I am actually eyeing to have a unified ID already.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, sis. I still haven't got myself an SSS ID. My schedule is next Monday when I visit the city again.
ReplyDeleteReplacing a lost ID or renewing a government document can be really stressful especially when you have to contend with very long queues. I did the same thing in 2013 when I had to renew my passport. As bad a it sounds, I took advantage of the ongoing siege that year so I finished the process in a snap. There were just a handful of us there and I was among the first ones to arrive.
ReplyDeleteThat's nice to hear that government agencies are becoming more time efficient when processing ID's and other services. I got my SSS UMID like 3 years ago, it wasn't that hassle for us because our HR already submitted all the requirements all we need to do is go to the SSS branch for the picture taking.
ReplyDeleteLucky you that your HR process everything. :)
DeleteHi Michi! May I know if the replacement SSS ID is still the old type of the new UMID?
ReplyDeleteI prefer the old one as it has my SSS number.
Your reply would be greatly appreciated.
I guess it is the new one. My husband's ID is different from my ID.
Deletei hope they will give an option for us to renew the old SS ID as i prefer that one rather than the UMID.
DeleteI have my sss card but the old one. I want to apply the umid card. They told me to surrender my old sss card then pay 300 pesos to any affiliated bank.. My question is, what bank affiliated for 300 pesos for umid card?
ReplyDeleteNot sure with the list of accredited banks but my husband went to Metrobank.
DeleteThanks....how about aub bank
DeleteAffidavit of Loss is only valid until the end of the calendar year when you got it, you will need to get a new affidavit.
ReplyDeleteI lost my entire wallet with all my IDs in it. I only have my passport as a valid ID. Would that suffice? Also, would a COE from my employer be considered valid? (We don't have a company ID. Just a badge with our name on it and that's it.)
ReplyDeleteThey need 2 valid id, you can check if they accept postal ID.
