This is my first time to claim an SSS sickness benefit. I was inspired to file a claim for my infected eczema after reading Mommy Joy’s post about voluntary member’s benefits. All I can say is it is a bit tedious and that is probably why many, even if they are fully aware of this benefit, decide not to claim it anymore.
I had to go back to the SSS office three times for this claim. The first I did not know that physical examination by their own nurses/doctors is only done fro 8 AM to 12 NN. I went there after lunch. I went back the following day in the morning. I was examined but was asked to go back again because the recent premium payments I made were not yet posted and they asked another report from the doctor who saw me. The third one is today when I had to submit the claim, which also took the longest!
To avoid hassles just like what I had gone through, here are some tips.
- Stock up on SSS forms. If they only give you one, you can photocopy it. Always bring it with you when you go to the doctor.
- Be sure to fill-up the correct forms. I filled up an incorrect one, good thing they accepted it and just stapled with the other papers.
- If you are a voluntary member, I suggest you make sure all your contributions are already posted in your account. You can check this online.
- Be patient but know when you should ask what happened to your paper. The desk where I was suppose to go is unmanned and I was waiting for about 10 minutes already. When I saw the SSS staff I saw before, I asked her what number she is already serving. That is the only time she called the numbers. Then she took my paper, told me to sit down and wait for my name to be called. That waiting time took me another more or less 30 minutes. I was starting to be impatient because I have the girls waiting for me. I asked what happened to my paper. To my dismay, I can see from afar that it looks like they forgot about it! The nurse finally called me and gave me a small piece of paper, the claiming stub. That took me about 3 minutes.
Hopefully in 60 working days this hassle will be worth it.

Mam ask ko lang sana kung pwedy pa ba maka apply ng sss sickness benefit kung nov.2022 ang nakuha ko tapos ngayong Jan. 2023 nagkasakit ukit ako, pwedy ko pa ba ma applyan ng sss sickness benefits?
Elisah Jean says
Hi! Both of my parents po were out of work for almost a month because of Covid. They are employees in a private hospital. May nagtext na po na galing sa SSS na approved na daw po yung sickness notification nila. Kindly advise employer to submit reimbursement online daw po. Pero the hospital told them to search at sss.gov.ph yung list kung saan yung list of approved SS Notifications makikita at i-screenshot daw. My parents, being new to this, let me do it pero hindi ko po talaga mahanap. Sana po ay matulungan niyo ako.
Nick says
Na approved na po sa sss yung sickness benifts ko , nasa online bank na daw po ? Ask ko lang sana if matagal ba talaga bago ma approved sa online bank to employer ?
justin says
Hello po kapag employed po ba pano po makukuha sa atm po ba or cheque?
Nicquee says
Hi Justin,
actually matagal na itong experience ko. That time, cheque ko pa nakuha. Pero ngayon ata sa bank na napasok kaya sila humihingi ng bank details.
Je says
Hello po. Ask ko lang po sana kung pwede ko ba i file personally sa sss yung sickness claim? Na operahan po ako last January 7, 2021 then nag resign po ako kahapon Feb. 14, 2021. Na deny po yung sss sickness claim ko kasi kulang yung documents na naipasa ng company. Possible po ba ako na mismo mag file sa sss dahil separated na po ako sa employer ko? Then ano po mga requirements. Sana po masagot nyo yung tanong ko. Salamat po.
Carmina says

Nicquee says
Hi Mam Carmina,
Matagal po talaga ang proseso eh. Sa akin ata inabot ng 3 months bago ko nakuha ang benepisyo ko.
rain says
mam

Nicquee says
Hello. Last time po parang hindi na naka tseke eh kaya sila nahingi ng active account number. Matagal po talaga sya. I think yung akin inabot ng 3 months or so po. Sana makuha niyo na po agad ang benefit niyo.

Submit a fully accomplished sickness notification form. Nakukuha po yan sa HR bg company or hingi kayo sa SSS. Fill-upan nyo po at ng attending physician ng asawa ninyo. Saka lahat po ng result ng labs at procedures na ginawa. ORIGINAL PO LAHAT.
If working: ORIGINAL SSS notif form + ORIGINAL labs and procedures results + PHOTOCOPY ng 2 VALID GOV’T IDs. With 3 specimen signatures. Each.
Yun lang po. Sana makatulong.

Ralph says
Hi Nicquee,
Good day! Would just like to ask if I can file for SSS sickness benefit even if I still have available vacation days? I have been out for 3 weeks and already consumed all my sick leaves. I only have 9 sick days left therefore 6 days can’t be covered anymore.
Thanks for your help in advance!
Regards,
Ralph
Joy says
Hi maam. Im planning to file for sickness benefit sa sss, i was advised rest po kc for 3weeks. Im just confused po. Since husband ko po ang kausap ng sss staff, binigyan po kc sya ng dalawang form sickness notification at sickness reimbursement.. Magkaiba po ba yun? (yung sister ko kc tru cheque nya nareceive and benefit nya..) thanks..
Nicquee says
Hello. Pasensya na po pero hindi ko po maalala yung sickness reimbursement. Also, alam ko po ngayon lahat bank account na deretso ang claims.
Michael Vicente says
Hi. Nakapag file na po ako ng sickness notification and was being processed by my employer 2 months ago na po. I always asks updates to them what is the status of my application but they said it takes 2 to 3 months daw po yun.Actually mag 3 months na sya this june . I checked sss online about it and it is being indicated on the status is “For Review” and the reason “CRL review in on going”. What does it mean po?
Paul says
Kung ako po sa iyo, tawag ka sa 8888 para ireklamo ang mabagal na process nila. Ganyan din po nangyari sakin. Jan2018 pa po yung sakin tapos this august palang po na approved yung sickness notification ko. After that yung reimbursement naman. Magkaiba po kasi yung dalawang yun, tumawag at nagpatulong lang po ako sa 8888 para mapabilis ang process nila. Ayun na process po agad
Lynette sernat says
Paano po kayo tmwag sa 8888 ? Gnyan din kse ung sken tgal ko na fnile gng ngaun wala pdin dw ..

Hello Mam Julie. Pagkapasa ko po ng requirements, nag-inquire ako after a week kung tama pagka-alala ko. Kung ibinalik po sa inyo ang requirements ninyo, ibig sabihin po ata nun at may kulang. Mas maigi po na magpunta kayo sa pinakamalapit na SSS office sa inyo to inquire. Salamat po.

Nicquee says
Hello Mam Sicily. Unfortunate po, wala pa po akong experience regarding sa pagkuha ng ganyang benefits. May katagalan po talaga ang pag claim ng benefits sa SSS. I strongly suggest po na tiyagain niyo lang po mag follow-up sa Dagupan branch.
Ryan Gunner says
Hi Mam,
Greetings.
I would like to ask im a person with disability due to stroke my partial disability pension will end soon do you have any information or idea if my pension still be renewed or can be extended since i still have not recovered from my disability due to massive stroke.
Thank you and hoping
for response,
Ryan gunner
Nicquee says
Hello Sir Ryan,
I hope all is well with you. Hindi po ako affiliated with SSS and I do not have information po regarding your inquiry. To be sure po, I strongly suggest that you visit the nearest branch to you. Or you can call their hotline, 9177777. From experience, sa gabi mas ok tumawag sa hotline nila. I hope na ma extend po ang pension ninyo.
JuneLyn says
I was advised for bed rest due to pre term uterine contraction. My doctor give me a medical certificate.I already filled up an sss sickness notification. I just want to know,Is my medical certificate enough to support my sss sickness notification for me to avail sickness benefit?
Nicquee says
Hi Mam Junelyn,
Are you a voluntary member po ba? When I was hospitalized, ang dami nilang hiningi sa akin eh. If you are voluntary, you might be asked to go back again para i examine ng doctor nila. If you are employed naman po, you bed rest should be covered by your sick leaves.
JuneLyn says
i am employed.I am not confined at a hospital my doctor want me to rest at home and my sick leave was already consumed.
Nicquee says
Hello Mam Junelyn,
I think you should course your submission po through your company. Your medical certificate should suffice, unless SSS team thinks otherwise po. I hope they accept it, para di na kayo mahirapan sa pagpapasa sa kanina.
Jennifer ursal says
Hi po maam tnong lng po pag po b nagfile k ng sickness notification gaano po b katagal bago m claim at paano nman po kung mag file po kmi ng partial disavility gaano rin po katagal ang kailangan nmin hintayin kc po naputulan ng daliri ang asawa ko.
Gracey says
hi po! ako po kase nabedrest for 2 weeks dahil na fractional curettage po ako, company po namen ung mag-ayos at nagpasa ng papers sa SSS. hiningian nila ko ng requirements, med certificate, sss form na mei pirma ng dr., ung procedure na gnwa sa operation, ska medical abstract. eto nman po e kung dumaan lng ng procedure. ayun nashare ko lng. ^^
Catalino Enriquez says
Hi! I just want to know if companies which are supposed to advance sickness benefits can postpone or even withhold the check due me? I was informed by my supervisor that it is being held because of attendance issues. Is there a law that I can use to complain against such practice?
Nicquee says
Hello Sir Catalino,
I’m sorry to hear your situation. Honestly speaking, wala po akong idea. I hope you get your cheque na.
janine says
alam ko bawal nila ihold yun.. pwede ka magreklamo. kasi mandatory sa kanila na ibigay yung advance payment for sickness.
Sarah says
Bawal ihold ng company yan kasi SSS benefit yan, babayaran din ng SSS sa kanila yung perang ibabayad sayo. Dapat nga advance yan bayaran every regular payday. May fine yan kapag di ka nila binayaran.

Nicquee says
Hello Mam Cris,
I hope magaling na po kayo. For your concern, it is best po to consult with your nearest SSS branch. From what I know po kasi, dapat continuous na 6 months yung huling contribution po ninyo. I may be wrong po so please do consult sa nearest SSS office.

Nicquee says
Hello Mam Daisy,
I hope by this time po nakapunta na po kayo uli sa SSS Manila at na explain na po nila sa inyo kung bakit na deny at kung paano maaapprove. Hindi po ako connected sa SSS at hindi ko rin po kayang sagutin ang inyong katanungan. Salamat po.
Joecyl Gimenez says
Hi Ms Nicquee,
I have a colleague her employment status is a Project base, she not covered by company sick leave. She was stricken by a chicken fox and advised by the doctor to have home rest at least four days. Is she allowed to file SSS sick benefit?
thanks,
joecyl
Nicquee says
Hi Joecyl,
Si company po ba ang nagbabayad ng sss niya or siya mismo? Either way, I think she should be able to file sickness claim basta meron xang active contribution for the last 6 months (i think). For complete requirements for the filing, please see the nearest sss office po. I hope makatulong.
arnold juat says
Mam tanong ko lang po pag nag sickleave po ba. mga ilang week po pra mkuha yung sickness leave ko…kasi june p po kasi hanggang ngayon hindi ko p po nkukuha…
Naomi says
Hi po..
Tanong ko lang po if 3 months is normal para maghintay ng checque for SSS Sick Leave? Ksi nagfile pa ako last Nov 17, 2016 then binalik SSS Sick leave form ko dahil need ko daw mag fill up for SSS E4 form. So natapos ko na po mag fill up then attached with my Original NSO. Nireceived naman po nila yung SSS Sick Leaave form ko then binalik sakin is yung photocopy nalang NSO ko.. Up until now patapos na ang February wala pa rin ako narereceived na checque. Sabi nman ng employer ko approved nman kasi complete requirements naman ako at hindi nman din late filing. Sana po dumating na, kasi napakatagal na po nun at sayang din nagastos ko sa medication. Thanks a lot po!
Nicquee says
Hi Naomi,
Medyo may katagalan po talaga ang pagrelease ng sss. Intayin lang po ninyo.
Grace says
Hi mam niquee..member po ako ng sss 9 yrs po contriburion ko private teacher po kc..june 2016 po ngresign ako dhil ngpublic po ako..pero po tinuloy ko aa voluntary member kung ano po ung contribution ko nung nasa private po ako ganun din ing binabayad ko ngayon P1,340.

Nicquee says
Hi Mam Grace,
I think possible po na ma i file po yan as sss sickness benefit. Kelangan niyo lang po yung mga requirements. Sana po gumaling po kayo agad.
Anna Liza Garcia says
Hi sis! For voluntary member din ako, kapag ngpaconsult ako sa doctor and I want to file sickness benefits, ipapafill up ko lang yung sss form and then another doctor from sss office will examine pa or verify pa for their approval bago ako makakuha ng sss benefits ko? Ganun ba iyon? Thanks
Nicquee says
Hi Mam Anna Liza,
Opo tama po kayo. At hindi po ata lahat ng sickness, naipa-file as sickness claim.
kaye says
Question, there is an unclaimed check dated 2010. May we reprocess the check kahit sobrang tagal na. Now lang kasi sya na-audit, what is the protocol? Thanks

Hello,
I am in no way connected to any SSS office po. For such, I strongly suggest that you visit the nearest SSS branch for your inquiry. Thank you po.
Arriane Joyce Trillado says
Good day po! I am planning to file my SSS sickness benefit application today or tomorrow. I am Self-employed. May I know how much po ang pwedeng mkuha? Slmat po
Nicquee says
Hi Mam Arriane,
Honestly mam, hindi ko po alam kung magkano eh. Ang alam ko po, depende po yan sa contribution niyo. You can ask po your nearest SSS office regarding your concern. Pasensya na po sa aking limited knowledge. I hope your claim po gets approved.
Arriane Joyce Trillado says
Slmat po Ma’am..

Voluntary member po ako, paying the maximum amount. Mag papaopera ako this coming March, pwede ba akong mag file ng sick benifit? may makukuha po ba ako? wala po kasi ako idea sa ganito, philhealth lng kasi ang alam ko. please reply po. salamat
Nicquee says
Hi Mam Cheryl,
Alam ko po dapat buo yung latest 6 months ninyo. Tapos yung condition niyo po, dapat pasok dun sa criteria ng SSS. Pero I am 99% sure po na may makukuha kayo. Dapat meron po. Kung may aalisin sa inyo, at pasok sa disability claim, kasama po yun. I strongly suggest po that you visit your nearest SSS branch to get more information po. Para at least, come March, prepared na po kayo, pati documents needed para easy filing na lang. I hope po makatulong.
Cheryl says
Hi Miss Niquee, salamat po sa reply

My mother in law was the one who filed my husband’s sickness leave because of his vehicular accident. She went there four times already but until now (2 months na) we’re still waiting for the cheque to arrive coz we really need it for his therapy. However,we really hope and pray na sana naman dumating na.
Nicquee says
Hi Mam Cetadel,
If approved naman na po, for sure, darating po ang cheque, wala lang definite date. I am sorry to hear about your husband’s accident. Praying for his recovery.
Noel says
Hi, I was recently diagnosed with URTI (upper Respiratory Tract infection) and UTI. I was advised by the doctor to rest at home for 7 days. Tanong ko lang, anong first step ko para magapply sa sickness benefit? And should I let my employer’HR to do the filing o dapat po personally ako pumunta sa SSS?
Salamat po sa sagot.
Nicquee says
Hi Sir Noel,
I apologize for the delayed response. First, do you have sick leaves or none? Kung meron pa, no need to file SSS Sickness Claim. Kasi from what I understand, paid ang sick leaves. Kung wala naman, filing will be course through your HR, so you still get compensated for the days you are unable to work care off SSS.
sanita says
tapos na po ako mag file ng sickness leave ko, pag e follow-up ko yun titingnan pba ako ng doc. sa sss? sa tingin nyo po, pwede po bang ako personally ang mag claim ng checke ko o yung employer ko, kasi nong nag pasa ako ng complete sickness requirments sinabihan ako na bakit ako personally ang nag file?
Nicquee says
Hi Sanita,
My experience po is based on being a voluntary member. I do not have personal experience in filing a sickness claim while employed. Sa tingin ko po, kung employed, dapat ang filing is through the employer, since the contribution is also coursed through them. P

hi goodmorning..
na confine po ako last july 15,2016-july 18,2016, 3 months po akong naka sick leave dahil naaksidente ako.. ok na naman lahat ng requirements na kailangan at nakapag pasa na ako ng requirements na hiningi ng company namin na ipapasa sa sss noon din..tanong ko lang po gaano katagal ba bago ko marecieve ung salary?
Nicquee says
Hi Julie,
Yung experience ko po ay based sa pagiging voluntary member. Hindi po ako naka experience mag file ng SSS sickness claim while employed so wala po akong experience na ma ishare. You can ask po your HR about your concern. Praying na sana makuha niyo na po ang salary ninyo.
melody says
Gaanu po ba katagal makuha ang cheque for sss benifits last oct 9 pa po ako ngfile dpa dn dumarating.

I was advised by my employer to file for sick benefits for i have a year to do so upon the date that i was hospitalize. All the papers are with me now complete as far as their requirement is concern. My question is.. Is it possible for me to file for sickness benefit directly to any SSS branch near me? Second is ikakaltas ba nila to sa sahod ko just like a salary loan? What would you suggest? Ty
Nicquee says
Hi Sir Gelo,
So 14 days kang wala sa office. Na-cover ba yun ng sick leaves mo from your company? If yes, I dont think pwede ka pa mag file sa SSS. Kasi having approved SLs, means you are already paid by the company.
Wala kang SL. You should course your SSS sickness claims through your company bilang sila ang nagkakaltas at nagbabayad ng SSS contributions mo. I dont think you are allowed to file the sickness claim personally kung employed ka.
Yung makukuha mo sa SSS sickness claim mo ay hindi dapat kaltasin sa sahod mo dahil yun ang bayad para sa mga araw na hindi ka nagtrabaho, given na hindi ka pa binayaran ng kumpanya (paid sick leaves). Ang sickness claim ay benefit ng SSS members. Totally different ito sa isang loan (which we need to repay).
I hope nakatulong ako sayo.
Andrew says
Hi, kung my sick leave benefits pa kon natira sa current company ko pede bang magaply ng sick benefits?
Nicquee says
Hi Sir Andrew,
From what I understand, yung sickness claims sa SSS, magagamit mo lang yun kung:
1. employed ka, ubos na lang sick leaves mo. Yun ang lalabas na compensation mo from the days na absent ka without pay.
2. unemployed ka, voluntary member ka ng sss at updated ang payments mo. Makakapag file ka ng sickness claims because that is part of your sss benefits. Still, that is subject for approval ng SSS authorities.
I hope this helps.
joyce manzanares says

Nicquee says
Hi Mam Joyce,
May katagalan po talaga ang paglabas ng cheke from SSS. Yung akin po 1 month inabot bago ko nakuha.
majic says
Hi po.. san po ba mas madali mag file ng sickness? Sa sss or sa representative ng company? Thanks po.
Nicquee says
Hi Majic,
If you are connected to a company, wala pong ibang choice kundi mag file through your company. If you are a voluntary SSS member, you can file personally or through a representative. I hope this helps.
Benilda villanueva says
Hi anu po ang mga requirements to claim sss sickness benifits kung voluntary lng po contribution ko. Thanks po?
Nicquee says
Hi Benilda,
Kailangan niyo po ng medical records. Hindi ko na po masyado rin maalala ang requirements kasi may katagalan na rin yung application ko. You can visit po the nearest SSS branch sayo for the complete list of requirements. Please ask ang schedule ng doctor nila kasi titignan ka pa rin ng doctor nila kahit may medical records ka na para di sayang oras mo.
Jeanie Rose Veran says
gaano ba talaga katagal ang paghihintay ng sickness allowance?kasi po last August pa nag file ang aking husband at sinabi ng SSS after 1 month meron na.eh October na ngayon wala pa rin.palagi kami nag inquire sa atm ng husband ko kasi ipapadala sa atm.na disgrasya sa barko ang asawa ko po.natanggalan po sya ng isang eyeball.
Nicquee says
Hi Mam Jeanie,
Im so sorry to know what happened to your husband. Kung hindi po ninyo alam saan nai-file ang sickness notification, alamin po ninyo at deretso po kayong mag follow-up dun. Yun po ang alam kong best way to know ang status ng claims po. I hope nakatulong po ako kahit konti.
Aubrey says
It’s been a month already since my husband filed his sss benifit loan sa agency na pinapasukan nya. Magaling na sya at lahat wala padin yung cheke ?
Nicquee says
Hi Mam Aubrey,
May katagal ko po talaga ang processing. Hintay lang po kayo. Hopefully makuha niyo na ang cheke ninyo.
Bryan Acaylar says
good pm. po kailan po ba in persoo pumunta sa sss para mag file ng sick benefit e paano yan bago palang po ako na operahan at di pa ako makalakad paano po yan? pwede bang mag file nalng ako pag naka lakad na ako need your advice?
Nicquee says
Hi! I personally filed mine. Other people I know filed theirs personally as well. I think you are given a specific time frame when you can file. I e-examine ka rin kasi ng doctor ng sss. Maybe you can ask your one of your family members to inquire for you in the nearest SSS branch. π
aickar says
Hi how can I check the status of my sss sickness benefit claim online? Thanks
Nicquee says
Hi Mam/Sir Aickar,
Unfortunately, I don’t think there is no way to do that. All I can see in my online account is the eligibility and needed documents for filing. The best way to follow up I think is to visit the branch where you filed it. I hope this helps.
Godofredo A Pura Jr. says
Goodmorning nagfile ako ng sickness notification last Aug.pa till now wala pa yung cheque matagal ba ngayon ang claim nagresign na ako sa work ko mail ba sa office ko yung cheque..thanks
Nicquee says
Hi! Mejo matagal po talaga ang release ng cheque. I am not sure kung saan i mail ng SSS. Ako kasi resigned na ako when I filed a claim so talagang sa home address ko nasend ang cheque ko. I strongly suggest na tawag-tawagan po ninyo yung branch where your claim was filed.
cyrus says
you need to follow it up with your last employer..kasi binabalik ng sss yung documents once they checked na resigned na yung member.. you have to file an individual sss sickness reimbursement.. thats what happend to me..kaya na pending din ng matagal
Nicquee says
Hi Cyrus,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the others! I hope you got your cheque already.
Melissa Quiba says
Hi mam pregnant po ako pinag bedrest till delivery po kasi po 3 times na po ang miscarriage ko. Ngayong pregnancy ko po is may myoma. Entitled po ba ako sa sickness benefits?
Nicquee says
Hi Melissa,
I think entitled ka pa rin sa sickness benefit. My sister was in bed-rest many times in her pregnancy. Naubos ang leaves niya. I think nag file sya sa SSS to claim sickness benefit. On process pa ata though. I hope all goes well on your pregnancy. I strongly suggest pa rin to go to the nearest SSS office for official advice. I hope nakatulong ako kahit konti.
rosell de julian says

Hi Mam Rosell,
Mejo matagal po talaga ang process eh. I hope your father got his cheque already. We pray na in due time, bibilis ang lahat ng ito.
Cherry lyn Aguada says
Hi!3 mos.po ang cover ng sickness benefit ng hubby ko.14k po ang dumating.may darating pa po bang other cheques to cover the 3mos.1cheque monthly po ba ang darating?hope to hear from u mam.thanku
Nicquee says
Hi Mam Cherry,
Congrats on your cheque. Honestly, wala akong idea kung ilang cheque as in my case, I only filed once and only got one cheque. I am not in any way connected to any SSS office so I cannot give you any other answer. You can probably ask in the branch where you filed for clarification. π
Jc says
Hi! cheque po ba ang marereceive? Hindi matatanggap direct sa bank account na sinulat sa form?
Nicquee says
Hi Jc,
I am not sure po as in my case, I received a cheque. Landbank po.
Eloisa Eustaquio says
Its been 15days already when I filed my sickness claim unfortunately until now I haven’t receive any kind of email or text yet..how will I know if my cheque is ready to claim or pick up..I’m willing to go at post office to get it.
Nicquee says
Hi Eloisa,
I got my cheque from the mail. Diniliver lang from what I can remember. Just be patient. It will help if you call the branch from time to time.
yanie says
how about if the company file for my sickness. how long will it take for me to get my check.?.and where will i claim it? in my company or will it be mailed at our house.
thanks so much
shey says
This is also my concern. Please po paki answer po yung tanong na ito soon. Thank you.
Nicquee says
Hi Shey,
Unfortunately, hindi ko po yan kayang sagutin because I AM NOT CONNECTED TO SSS. This post po is based on my personal experience as a voluntary member.
You can directly ask your HR po regarding your concerns. Salamat po.
efredo julian says
it’s been 3 months already when i filed my sickness claims, but unfortunately until now i have not receive yet.Please help on thes matter.
Nicquee says
Hi Efredo,
That is sad to hear. Maybe you can go to the SSS branch where you filed your sickness claims to follow-up. Present to them the stub that was given to you.
Unfortunately, that is all I can do to help you as I am not connected with this agency. Thanks!
angelbaclig says
So how long before you received your check? did you have to pick it up or was sent to your house? thank you!
Nicquee says
Hi,
I received my check after about a month from the filing date and it was mailed to me. If I remember it correctly, I got a registered mail from the post and picked up the check from the post office.
