You and Your SSS Loan: A PRN Pilgrimage (with Fewer Tears!)
Ah, the SSS loan. A financial lifeline, a debt-inducing dragon (depending on the day), and most importantly, something that requires a Payment Reference Number (PRN) to, well, pay it back. But fear not, fellow Filipino friend! For I, your friendly neighborhood guide (and occasional SSS meme creator), am here to walk you through the glorious (and hopefully painless) process of generating a PRN.
How To Generate Loan Prn Sss |
Step 1: Embark on the My.SSS Odyssey
First things first, you'll need to log in to your My.SSS account. If you haven't set one up yet, consider this your official SSS intervention. It's free, convenient, and saves you the hassle of physically going to a branch. Just remember, having an account takes a few days to activate, so plan accordingly, my friend.
Pro tip: If you're feeling particularly adventurous (or forgetful), you can download the SSS Mobile App. Same functionalities, just in a pocket-sized package.
Tip: Focus on one point at a time.![]()
Step 2: Navigate the PRN Maze (But Don't Panic!)
Once logged in, look for the "e-Services" tab. From there, find the "Generate PRN" option. Now, you might be presented with a bewildering array of choices. Don't worry, we're here to decipher the code.
For SSS Loan Payments:
Tip: Keep your attention on the main thread.![]()
- Select "Salary Loan" or "Calamity Loan" (depending on your loan type).
- Choose the payment month you're targeting.
- Hit "Generate PRN" and voila! Your magical reference number appears.
Remember: This PRN is only valid for 15 days. So, unless you're planning on channeling your inner sloth, it's best to pay your loan ASAP.
Step It Up a Notch: Multiple Loan Payments? No Sweat!
Feeling like a loan-paying pro? If you have multiple SSS loans, you can generate a single PRN to cover them all. Just tick the "Include Other Loan/s" box and select the additional loans you want to pay. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.

The Final Frontier: Where to Pay Your Loan (with the PRN in Hand)
Now, armed with your powerful PRN, you have several payment options:
- SSS accredited collecting partners: This includes banks, Bayad Centers, and online payment channels.
- Over-the-counter payments at SSS branches: But hey, remember the My.SSS account and mobile app we talked about? They can save you a trip!
Important Note: Always double-check the amount you're paying before hitting that "confirm" button. Nobody wants any PRN-related mishaps!
Tip: Each paragraph has one main idea — find it.![]()
