- State-run Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) will release the June pension payments two days early, on Friday, June 6, instead of the usual eighth of the month.
According to the GSIS, the adjusted date of release would fall on Eid’l Adha, which has been declared a regular nationwide holiday.
“Pensioners can conveniently withdraw their pension through ATMs using their UMID [unified multi-purpose ID] or eCard” even during the holiday, the state social insurer said.
Wick Veloso, GSIS president and general manager, said the decision is part of the insurer’s commitment to provide continuous relief to its pensioners.
“Even on a holiday, they can access their pension easily through ATMs,” Veloso said.
The GSIS advises its members and pensioners to stay informed by visiting its official website and following its verified social media accounts.
