Macau’s Social Security Fund (FSS) has encouraged the city’s pension or disability pension beneficiaries to provide proof of life, if they have not done so, by using electronic methods like the Macao One Account, to save time and for more convenience.
Beneficiaries only need to log in to the Macao One Account mobile app and successfully pass facial recognition to complete the provision of the proof of life. The beneficiary’s spouse or immediate family member (parent or child) may also log in to his or her own personal Macao One Account to assist the beneficiary in the process. After completion, beneficiaries may take a screenshot or receive a message about the completion of the process.
Alternatively, beneficiaries may bring a valid Macau SAR Resident ID Card to provide the proof of life through 24-hour self-service machines. All these electronic methods can provide the proof of life to the FSS, Social Welfare Bureau (IAS) and the Pension Fund at one time. For more information visit the FSS’s website or contact 2853 2850.
As of this year, there are approximately 159,000 pension or disability pension beneficiaries who need to provide the proof of life to the FSS. Currently, about 139,000 people have already provided the proof of life – around 118,000 of them have done it using electronic methods, accounting for about 85 per cent.
