Since I was informed by that government agency that my pension money might arrive in 1 or 2 months since I registered, I thought of calling the office this morning.
I dialed the first agency but it was wrong phone number. I then dialed the number of the 2nd agency and the lady answered me with a positive response:
"Ma'am, it is already in your bank account".
I said Thanks, and asked again when will I receive the next pension - will it be a year after? She responded, "Next May 2021, Ma'am".
I am glad. I will just have to confirm how much was deposited in my bank account.
I plan to give thanks to God by offering masses for me, my big brother in UK, myother family members, and my son, and more important, my health, that I may reach my son having his own family.

one government agency (SSS) informed me last August 4 that my claims will come in 1 or 2 months. when i called up last Wednesday, the lady employee said it is already in my bank account. I asked her when will the next pension benefits come, and she said May, so that is before my birthday next year. there is a policy that once the lump sum is given, there will be a lull, and the next claim will come on your birthday.
i expected my claim on November 2021, but it is scheduled on May 2021.

@ridingbet It is different here in Switzerland. We apply a few months before the retirement age, from the day of our anniversary we receive monthly our retirement salary. All European countries pay the retirement monthly.

Do you attend mass now in church Ate? I am thinking of going back to hearing mass online since we are having an increase in covid cases again lately.

Is your pension not every month? I remember my father got a large amount for the first time he received his pension, then the next time, every month. I don´t really know how it goes in our home country. Here in Germany, we will receive our pension every month.

I'm so glad for you that your pension support has arrived. Things will get better. We hang in there a little bit longer. We'll get there very soon.
