Overview
- The Association of AFPs published the official DNI-based registration calendar starting on October 21, with a free-registration window from December 4 to January 18 for those who miss their turn.
- The SBS procedure sets withdrawals in up to four monthly installments of one UIT each, with the first deposit due within 30 days of the request and the option to desist up to 10 days before a scheduled payment.
- Registration days are staggered by the last digit or letter of the DNI from October 21 through December 3 to manage demand and avoid platform saturation.
- Local reports indicate early filers should see first deposits around late November, near the November CTS deposit window for formal workers.
- Authorities say more than eight million affiliates can access the voluntary withdrawal, and users are advised to verify their AFP and update contact and bank details before filing.
