Do you have an unsettled loan balance with the Social Security System (SSS) that you have not yet paid for over a month now or even years? Maybe, it has come to a point where it’s continuously mushrooming and you are having difficulties paying off your remaining balance. Consider your queries solved because SSS is now offering its member an opportunity to oblige with their unpaid balance without penalties and with agreeable installment terms! In this article, we’ve got you covered because we will explain the ways on how you can apply for an SSS loan condonation program online.


November 2021, when the SSS issued the Short Term Member Loan Penalty Condonation Program (STMLPCP), a part of the Pandemic Relief and Restructuring Program (PRRP) of the agency. The SSS loan condonation program under the Short-term loans include:

  • Salary Loan
  • Calamity Loan
  • Salary Loan Early Renewal Program (SLERP)
  • Emergency Loan
  • Restructured Loan under the Loan Restructuring Program (LRP) implemented in 2016 to 2019.

With the help of the SSS loan condonation program, members will have the chance to fortify their loans and compel with their outstanding loan balance. Albeit, the principal and interest are still due and payable, the penalties incurred will be tolerated or waived. Members can choose between a one-off payment or monthly installments for six months.

Good news! You don’t have to visit an SSS branch to apply for the SSS loan benefit because it’s just several taps away from your computer and mobile phone. You just need an active My.SSS account. After completing the submission and approval of your credit benefit application, you must pay your fortified or reorganized loan within the required payment period, which will be within 30 days for a one-off payment and monthly installments for six months.

The deadline for filing of applications for Restructuring and Condonation of loans under the Pandemic Relief and Restructuring Program (PRRP) has been Extended.

Step-by-Step Procedure in Applying for SSS Loan Condonation Online

All SSS member-borrowers must apply for loan penalty condonation through their My.SSS account on the SSS website. Members with death, disability, or retirement claims must ask for loan condonation at SSS branches over the counter.

STEP 1: Login to your My.SSS account.

Log in to your account on the My.SSS member site using your browser. If you don’t have a My.SSS account, follow the instructions on this page to create one.

Once you’ve logged into your My.SSS account, go to “E-SERVICES” and select “Apply for Loan Penalty Condonation (STMLPCP/PRRP5)” from the dropdown menu.

How to apply SSS Loan Condonation Step 2

You’ll be directed to the application page for the Short-Term Member Loan Penalty Condonation Programs (STMLPCP). You can see your aggregated loan details and statement of loan balances on this page.

Step 3: Decide on a payment term that works best for you.

The third step is to decide whatever payment term you want to use. The default payment term is “One-Time Payment,” however you can pay your SSS loan in monthly installments by selecting “Installment” from the dropdown field for “Preferred Term.”

SSS members who have reached the age of 65 or who will reach 65 in the following six months are only eligible for a one-time payment.


If you want to pay by installment, you will be asked to make a 50 percent down payment on your consolidated loan. Even if the needed payment is made within the 30-day period, partial or staggered installments of the aggregated loan amount are not permitted. The 50 percent downpayment must be paid in one lump sum.

Starting the month after the 30-day downpayment period, the remaining 50% of the loan amount or the restructured loan will be paid in six (6) equal monthly payments. The restructured loan is subject to a 3% annual interest rate calculated on a decreasing principal balance over the course of the 6-month payment term.

After the restructured loan’s due date, a penalty of 1% per month will be applied to any outstanding amortizations during the 6 months payment term.
