Anu Ang Pagkakaiba ng MP2 Savings vs MP1?

Ang MP1 ng PAG-IBIG ay ang regular at mandatory contribution mo as a member.

Ito ay deducted sa iyong sahod or kung voluntary member ka namn, ito ang amount na monthly na dapat mo bayaran.

The multi-purpose loan of PAG-IBIG is computed based on your MP1 contributions.

Ibig sabihin, kapag mag-fifile ka ng multi-purpose loan sa PAG-IBIG, i-cocompute nito ang 80% ng MP1 contribution mo para sa iyong loanable amount.

Ang MP1 din ay ang isa sa basehan or factor kapag kukuha ka ng housing loan sa PAG-IBIG.

Anu naman ang MP2 Savings? Para saan ito?

Ang PAG-IBIG MP2 Savings ay hindi mandatory. Ito ay voluntary ngunit kinakailangan meron ka munang MP1 bago makapag-open ng MP2 Savings.

Pag-IBIG MP2 savings, also known as Modified Pag-IBIG 2, lets you save for your future expenses just like in bank accounts but MP2 offers much higher returns.

With MP2, you get yearly dividends that adds up to your savings. Ang MP2 ay may prescription na 5 Years.

After 5 years, kailangan mo na itong i-withdraw mula sa PAG-IBIG at pwede din naman na hayaan mo ito sa PAG-IBIG fund.

So, what if you didn’t claim your PAG-IBIG MP2 in five years?

The good thing here is that your money will continue growing for two more years.

MP2 is one of the best choices if you want to save money or go for a short-term investment.

If you do not want to go for an over-the-counter transaction in the nearest Pag-IBIG branch, you can remit through a monthly salary deduction.

If ever you are self-employed, you can also remit through PayMaya, GCash, Moneygment Mobile app, and ECPay in the nearest 7-Eleven outlets.
