Answer explanation

Unlike tax delinquencies and liabilities, where the Commissioner of Internal Revenue is granted under Section 204 of the National Internal Revenue Code of the Philippines with the power to compromise taxes in the Philippines or to allow payment of taxes at minimal amounts under certain instances, no similar power is given to the SSS.

Hence, delinquent employers, rejoice! Under the Social Security Act of 2018, employers are now given the opportunity to remit delinquent contributions without penalties. However, applications for condonation must be filed with the SSS during the period of 05 March 2019 to 06 September 2019
