Every pay Period
Employees must make their contributions to the Social Security system through payroll deductions, which occur with each paycheck. These contributions are typically withheld by employers and submitted to the Social Security Administration on behalf of the employees. The contributions are mandatory for most employees and are calculated based on their earnings, up to a certain income limit.
As of 2023, employees contribute 6.2% of their gross income to the Social Security system, up to a wage cap of $160,200. This percentage is matched by employers, bringing the total contribution to 12.4% for Social Security. It's important to note that these rates can be subject to change based on legislative adjustments.

All members of Congress, the President and Vice President, Federal judges, and most political appointees, were covered under the Social Security program starting in January 1984. They pay into the system just like everyone else. Thus all members of Congress, no matter how long they have been in office, have been paying into the Social Security system since January 1984.(Prior to this time, most Federal government workers and officials were participants in the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) which came into being in 1920--15 years before the Social Security system was formed. For this reason, historically, Federal employees were not participants in the Social Security system.)Employees of the three branches of the federal government, were also covered starting in January 1984, under the 1983 law--but with some special transition rules.1) Executive and judicial branch employees hired before January 1, 1984 were given a one-time irrevocable choice of whether to switch to Social Security or stay under the old CSRS. (Rehired employees--other than rehired annuitants--are treated like new employees if their break-in-service was more than a year.)2) Employees of the legislative branch who were not participating in the CSRS system were mandatorily covered, regardless of when their service began. Those who were in the CSRS system were given the same one-time choice as employees in the executive and judicial branches.3) All federal employees hired on or after January 1, 1984 are mandatorily covered under Social Security--the CSRS system is not an option for them.So there are still some Federal employees, those first hired prior to January 1984, who are not participants in the Social Security system. All other Federal government employees participate in Social Security like everyone else.This change was part of the 1983 Amendments to Social Security. You can find a summary of the 1983 amendments elsewhere on this site.
Yes, the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has its own Social Security System (SSS) for its employees, which provides benefits such as retirement, disability, and death benefits. However, PAGCOR is also a government-owned and controlled corporation, and its employees are required to contribute to the national SSS for social security coverage. This ensures that they receive the full range of benefits offered by the national social security program.
SBR in the context of an SSS (Social Security System) receipt refers to "Social Security Contribution Payment Reference Number." This unique number is used to identify and track contributions made by members to the SSS. It ensures that payments are accurately recorded and credited to the member's account, facilitating the management of social security benefits.
