How to Register SSS Online Employer Account

How to register SSS Online Employer Account? SSS Employer Online Registration Procedures and Requirements: If you are an employer or have been authorized by your company to process and file SSS records, contributions, applications, file sickness and loans, pass collection list, and other information, it is now important and helpful to register for an Employer’s Online Account to do these stuff easily, paperless and without going to the SSS office.

In this page, I am sharing how I successfully done the registration easily. After I paid our company’s contributions for this quarter, I was submitting the R3 reports as usual to the SSS and was surprised there’s a new task to be done.

They have given me a form I needed to fill up and I was required to register my employer’s online account to the SSS website before they received my R3 and contribution lists. So I did.

Steps and Procedures for SSS Employer Online Registration

  • Go to SSS official website and sign up as an Employer.
  • On the first phase, you will be asked to fill up the required field for employer’s details containing employer ID, company date of coverage, address with postal code, company email address, preferred user ID and contact numbers. Type the captcha and Click SUBMIT.
  • sss employer registration online
    A message will then appear (like below). Go to your email address and verify your account by going to the link provided in the email.
  • sss2
    You’ll then be brought to Phase 2 of the registration process. You need to provide the other needed information such as your personal SSS Number as you are the authorized signatory, your complete name and your email address. If you already have an SSS account online account as a MEMBER, it is advisable you use the details tied with that account. If not, just provide what is required and list them on your notebook so you may use them when you want to register as a Member.

this is a sample for the phase 2 registration. I deleted my info for security reasons

Don’t forget to tick the “I accept the Terms and Conditions”

  • A message saying you have submitted your registration to SSS for validation and that you will be informed of the results through email. Check your email to know if your registration was successful.
  • sss4
    You’re done. You can now use the SSS Employer account and transact online.

You can also register your employer account online by going to the SSS eCenter section. Just make sure you have your employer details ready with you such as email address, preferred user ID, password, etc. A successful sign up there gave me this message below:

  28. Hi!
    Ask ko lang po, When i tried to enter Authorized Signatory in phase II ayaw tanggapin yung name nung taong assigned though nagfile na kmi ng L-501 last May 2013. Sinasabi po na “authorized signatory is not employee based on sss records”. Paano po kaya un ndi ba nila na-update sa records nila yung finile namin (ndi kc sya employee tlaga accountant lang). And kapag ung employee naman yung nilagay, ok naman then after validation sinasbi na ndi sya authorized.
    Kung pupunta kmi sa sss branch ok lang ba na ang magprocess is yung messenger basta may dala lang na required documents.

    Thanks!

  32. Hi po! I just need your advise sana. I remember po kasi na nakapag register na ako sa SSS online as an employee a few years back. However, i have not tried opening it again siguro for more than a year na. Just recently, nag try po ako i-access uli yong online account ko to check sana ang mga contributions and loan payments ko. The problem is, hindi na yata nagtutugma yong password and username. Naalala ko kasi na previously, yong SSS number ang ginagawang username. Since di na magtugma, naisip kong ipa resend sa email ko yong new password. The problem is, hindi na pala active yong email address na ginamit ko before when I registered online. So, definitely hindi ko sya matatanggap. My question is, how will I be able to register again using my new email address? Kailangan ko bang ipa reset yong account ko mismo sa SSS office or do I have to re-register na lang? Gusto ko po kasi sanang ma check yong loan payments ko kasi nag apply ako for a new loan kasi nakapag 1 year na ako last August. I badly needed the money sana. Kaya lang according to them, may 6 months pa raw na hindi na post na payment. I checked my payment records sa accounting ok naman and on time naman submission nila. I was thinking na kung merong problema, it’s not from our end but theirs. I wonder why masyadong mabagal ang posting nila ng mga payments. instead na makatulong, parang nakapagdagdag pa sa problema. That is why po sana matulungan nyo ako kung paano ko po ulit ma acces yong account ko..Maraming salamat.

    • Hello 🙂 I suggest you go to the SSS personally and reset your online account applying your new email address and desired password. Make sure you choose strong password and also keep your login credentials in your notes so you wont forget them again. Also passwords in the SSS online account have expiry so we need to renew them (every 3 months ata). You’ll see the date of your password expiry on your SSS profile page after login. I also recommend you use a very reliable anti-virus software in your computer to take care of your private stuff and also to browse safely 24/7. I recommend Norton 360. You can try a free trial of it for 30 days then just buy the license after 30 days if you loved your experience using it.

  34. Hi Fehl,

    Good job with the blog. Very helpful.

    In your experience or from what you heard from your other “followers”, normally how long does it take for a bank to post monthly contributions to SSS that were paid over the counter?

    I encountered an issue when I tried to upload an R3 file. The problem is “Payment Details entered are currently not found in the SSS Cash Collection System. Please submit the collection list online once payment details are posted in the Online Inquiry accessible from your My.SSS employer account.”

    I am assuming that the SSS Cash Collection System referred to is some kind of a posting system of the R5 payments. The only explanation I can think of now is that the payments I did at the bank via over the counter about 3 weeks ago have not been posted to SSS. What do you think could be the issue? How long does it take banks usually to remit SSS contributions?

    Appreciate your feedback. Thank you.

  35. Good afternoon po! I am an employer with only one employee (my husband) and I paid his SSS contributions from Jan-June 2013 last January. At first, I did not know that I have to submit R3 reports. It was only in April that I was made aware of that I need to submit such reports so that my payments will be posted. I tried to process the requirements but I have been requested to return several times for some reasons: offline or the processing is only done every morning. On my third attempt, I was asked to look for the person in-charge on the 3rd floor. When I reached the office, the person they were referring to got mad since according to him, employers should try to register online by themselves first. So I explained that I was only following instructions and that I once tried to ask if I can do it by myself, but the lady said I have to pass through him. That moment, the guy gave me another instruction, which is for me to try registering online. So I did what was instructed. I already signed up as an employer 2 weeks ago but until now I have not received any email from SSS, which I believe they will. I tried to sign up again but I always get a notice indicating that the user ID is already registered. However, the problem is, I still cannot access. The online registration will be very helpful since I do not need to travel more than an hour just to reach SSS office.Can you please help me? Any advice will be highly appreciated. Thank you.

    • If you read the article above, it was mentioned there that SSS recently required all employers to have an online account to facilitate the R3 reports and uploading. Since you have signed up for employer account online, you have to wait for the email sent by SSS regarding your registration. That’s only the phase 1. If you were successful, you will be prompt at phase 2 which is also discussed in the article. You still have to wait for another email then. You know you have completed the registration once SSS sent you Congratulations message containing your username and password to log in finally at the SSS portal.

      • Thank you very much for the explanation. I have been waiting for the email from SSS for almost a month now. I have no idea what had happened to my registration. Do I need to go to the SSS office and inform them of my concern? I have been paying the contributions but until now, I haven’t posted any of them yet. Also, do you have any idea on how to reset the password for my personal SSS account? I have not tried accessing my personal account at the SSS website for more than 2 years already and I already forgot what was the password I used to create it. Thanks again for any help or advise you could extend.

        • Hi Jan 🙂 You’re welcome. Check your spam folder too in case the email was lost there. hehe If no email was received for a long time, yes go to the SSS. If you want to reset password, there is a link on the website. Select “Forgot password” then SSS will email you. I think password has a validity of 6 months. Just check your profile, there is a message there when your password will expire.

          • Hi good afternoon… done with phase 1 and 2 now I’m waiting for the second email but its been three weeks already haven’t receive any… not in spam folder or any other folders. ask ko lang does the authorized signatory needs to fill-up the SSS Form L-501? the AS is one of the employee… thanks po.

          • If the email requests you to file L-501, you need to submit it before you can proceed to the registration successfully. Yes both the authorized signatory and the employer must sign the L-501. The duplicate copy will be left in your company as a reference

    • This is about employer registration. If you want to register as an employee, you can do too online. If you will as an employer, you need to be a signatory of the company or have filed SSS Form L-501 (Specimen Signature). I filed mine and it’s valid for one year. If the authorized person resigned, another signatory have to file another L-501

    • Good morning 🙂 As employer, I suggest you go to the SSS branch that handles your records. All employers are now requested to register for the online account so posting and uploading R3 and other reports will be done online. Bring your current receipt and R5 collection list. Also prepare your company email address, username and preferred password. Go to the SSS e-online section
