What is the current amount for the DSWD social pension for seniors in the Philippines?

A Kalinga PH Team Answered by

As of now, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) provides a social pension of P500 per month for qualified senior citizens. This pension aims to support those aged 60 and above who do not receive any form of pension from the government or private sectors. Eligibility is determined based on certain criteria, so it's best to check directly with DSWD or visit their official website for the most accurate and updated information. Remember, your eligibility and the amount received can depend on individual circumstances.
