Date: December 11, 2014 Case in Kuwait Number 12: SSS Kuwait Kabayan Netz: Gandang Gabi Kabayan. May gusto lang po sana akong itanong. Tungkol po sa SSS ng asawa ko. Namatay siya last month lang at hindi ako nakauwi ngayon ang nag asikaso ay yung kapatid niya kung saan doon siya ibinurol. Ngayon ang beneficiary niya ako at ang tatlo naming anak. Pero bakit nakapasok ang name niya at instead na ako siya ang beneficiary ngayon? Parang na out of place na ako doon. Pwede b mangyari iyon? At ano po gagawin ko. Hindi naman ako makauwi due sa kakulangan sa financial. Sana po ay may makapagturo sa akin. Salamat po. God bless. Paki PM nalang po ako pag naipost niyo po Ma’am. Kabayan in Kuwait: Kabayan, pumnta ka agad sa ating embassy hanapin mo si Sir Jhun ng SSS at matutulungan ka niyo. Siya ang manager natin dito sa ngayon. Sabihin mo lamang ay itinuro ka ng Kabayan in Kuwait. Puntahan mo agad ito dahil may kaukulan itong policy or tamang kasagutan. Kabayan Netz: Salamat po Kabayan, Oo sasabhini ko sa amo ko punta ako doon.  

Are you an OFW in Kuwait dealing with issues related to your SSS (Social Security System) benefits? This case highlights the challenges and solutions for Filipinos abroad needing assistance. Recently, a member of our community, Kabayan Netz, encountered a problem regarding her late husband’s SSS benefits. Despite being the designated beneficiary along with her three children, she discovered that her name had been replaced with her brother-in-law’s. Unable to return to the Philippines due to financial constraints, she reached out for help. We advised Kabayan Netz to visit the Philippine Embassy in Kuwait and seek out Sir Jhun, the SSS manager. It’s crucial to address such discrepancies promptly, as they can significantly impact the benefits entitled to the rightful beneficiaries. Sir Jhun and his team at the embassy are equipped to handle these issues and provide the necessary support and guidance. For those facing similar challenges, it’s important to act quickly. Gather all relevant documents, including any official correspondence and identification, and head to the embassy. Inform them of your situation and request their assistance in resolving the matter. The embassy staff can help clarify any misunderstandings and ensure that your rights as a beneficiary are protected. Remember, you are not alone in this. The Filipino community in Kuwait is strong and supportive. Don’t hesitate to seek help and share your concerns with trusted community members or advocacy groups like Diary ni Gracia. They can offer valuable advice and support during difficult times. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to contact us at Diary ni Gracia.
