How to Do SSS Number Cancellation - Multiple Accounts Registered Online

If by mistake you made multiple registrations whether online of offline and your name bears 2 or more different SSS numbers, this is for you. Here is a step by step guide on how to consolidate your contributions, records, loan payments and all. Just remember that if you let this happen and do not make any move to do the SSS number cancellation, later on, it will take its toll on your membership details. This has happened many times due to carelessness or unfamiliarity and lack of knowledge that later on, this will cause inconvenience both to you and possibly your loved ones if a scenario of claim due to death or hospitalization is up.

4 big reasons why you should opt in for sss number cancellation for multiple accounts registered

1. Making a mistake of registering different SSS numbers under your name for purposes of thinking you could possibly cheat on your pension later is not advisable. If you did this by mistake and think that there is nothing wrong with what you just did, you are wrong. This could badly impact your status of contribution and consolidation of membership benefits to avail, account details such as contributions, payments and different applications with  Social Security System. In the end, you will be required to consolidate your records under 1 name and 1 number.

2. It is a different scenario however if you have a common name. In this case, it is easy for SSS to know who is who by records of member residence, employment, account number (if you have one) and ID by virtue of a digital photo which is required these days when you apply for a SSS ID or UMID (unified multi-purpose ID).

3. Another valid reason why you need to cancel multiple SSS account numbers is because it is very hard to cheat an automated system these days. If it worked for others back in the old days, it might and will not work for you today. That, i can guarantee you so don't get the wrong impression that the Social Security System will not penalize you in a way or two. By penalize what I mean is by virtue of giving you a hard time later on because you will need to consolidate all your records under your unique name and SSS number.

4. Lastly, there is no way you can get away with a mistake whether it is intentional or not. Avoid the inconvenience later or suffer delays and errors in all your upcoming transactions later. I'm pretty sure you will not like it falling in the very long line especially during these times of the Covid-19 pandemic quarantine. Furthermore, there are only a few skeletal force workers for the Philippine government today and that includes workforce for the SSS. Also just to simply realize that it is very important  to risk exposure to viruses these days. You might just regret it if you did it intentionally.
