SSS Salary Loan Renewal 2025: Step-by-Step Guide to Get Your Second Loan Approved

The 36-month rule for SSS salary loans is now in full effect, and it’s already causing headaches. In fact, 38% of renewal applications are auto-denied because contributions weren’t posted, balances weren’t updated, or other technical issues popped up.

This guide is your roadmap to successfully renewing your SSS salary loan in 2025. You’ll get the exact clicks, a renewal amount calculator, sample computations, and a denial-fix checklist to make sure your second loan gets approved smoothly.

Who Can Renew in 2025?

You can qualify for SSS salary loan renewal in 2025 if you meet the following criteria:

  • 36 total monthly contributions, with 6 posted in the last 12 months

  • Existing loan is at least 50% paid or your ledger is fully updated

  • Not older than 65 at the loan’s maturity date

  • Your employer has posted your latest contributions

  • No standing benefit overpayments or account blocks

Tip: Make sure your My.SSS account reflects your correct employer, employment status, and UMID/DBP/UBP bank enrollment.

Renewal Amount Table

Your eligible renewal amount depends on your contributions and outstanding balance. Use LoanOnline’s live calculator to compute your new loan:


Remaining Balance Paid Portion Eligible New Loan Net Proceeds After Deduction
₱5,000 Deducted from new loan ₱30,000 ₱25,000
₱10,000 Deducted ₱35,000 ₱25,000
₱15,000 Deducted ₱40,000 ₱25,000

Sample Computation

Suppose you have a remaining balance of ₱15,000:

  • Maximum eligible new loan: ₱40,000

  • Deduct old balance: ₱15,000

  • Net cash proceeds: ₱25,000 credited to your UMID bank

Tip: Your new loan automatically deducts the old balance, so you don’t need to pay it separately.
