Sweldong Pinoy is a salary calculator for Filipinos in computing net pay, withholding taxes and contributions to SSS/GSIS, PhilHealth and PAG-IBIG. Budget Pinoy is a tool for Filipinos in finding out how much their asking salary should be based on their budget. In 2025, the contibution for SSS will be higher.
SSS
Pursuant to Republic Act No. 11199 (The Social Security Act of 2018), the monthly contributions of SSS members will be increased from the current 14% to 15%. Employer share will be 10% (from 9.5%) while the employee share will be increased to 5.0% (from 4.5%). The minimum and maximum salary credits to be used for computation will now be 5,000 and 35,000 (from 4,000 and 30,000).
Sweldong Pinoy for Kasambahay
We have also added Domestic Worker (Kasambahay) in the list of employment types and the app will compute the corresponding deductions based on Republic Act No. 10361 (Domestic Workers Act or Batas Kasambahay).
App Updates
We have already added these changes to sweldongpinoy.com and budgetpinoy.com, and the Android apps (Sweldong Pinoy version 5.0 and Budget Pinoy version 2.0). If you want to compare the current (2024) and the upcoming rates, you can use the dropdown to change the year and compare how the salary will change.
