In case you are not a member yet, the first part of this beginner's guide tackles how to become a member through online registration and the different ways to contribute to your membership.

Make the most out of your Pag-IBIG Fund membership by claiming your benefits. The procedures and payment methods are as follows.

How to File a Pag-IBIG Claim for Provident Benefits

1. Pay a visit to the Pag-IBIG branch where your membership records are kept.

We recommend that, before registering for a membership, you make sure that the branch where you file your application is close to you so that processing your claims, loans, and other transactions is less of a bother for you and that you can keep track of your application.

2. Compile and submit all required information.

Before submitting your application, make a list of all the conditions you've been requested to meet and double-check everything you've included.

3. Allow for the completion of the verification procedure.

A Pag-IBIG staff member will examine your records to see whether you have any outstanding amounts, such as a Pag-IBIG housing loan, multi-purpose loan, or catastrophe loan. To minimize delays, make sure to clear all of your balances before submitting your application.

4. Issuing Acknowledgement Receipts for Provident Benefits

Upon verification of your application, a Pag-IBIG service member will provide a Provident Benefits Acknowledgement Receipt. The date of pick-up of your check will be indicated on this claim stub.

5. Claim withdrawal.

Depending on the branch where you made your claim, the claiming procedure might take anywhere from a week to over a month (8-20 working days). It will be faster if you execute your claim withdrawal at the same location where you enrolled for membership since your payment history and other information will be immediately available. For the actual pick-up date of your claim, double-check the date specified on your acknowledgment receipt. If your claim is paid by check, simply go to a Pag-IBIG office and produce your claim stub together with two acceptable IDs to the cashier. Whether your claim is processed through your disbursement or payroll account, just check with any approved ATM or bank to see if your funds are available for withdrawal.
