Financial Assistance for COVID-19 positive.

Requested from SSS by F. Magro at 10:25 PM on Jan 10, 2022.
Purpose: Assistance.
Date of Coverage: 01/05/2022 - 01/10/2022
Tracking no: #SSS-705852091576

To whom it may concern,

Good day! I am currently unemployed but I have atleast 13 or 14 months of SSS contribution as of the moment.

May I confirm if I will still be eligible to receive the cash assistance despite my situation? Will it also suffice if my COVID-19 positive result came from an anti-gen test instead of an rt-pcr test?

I would highly appreciate the clarification, and please let me know what should be the required documents that I would need to submit if I can proceed on filing for a cash assistance.

Thank you very much!
