OSCA — Senior Citizens

Anyone 60 years old or above can get an OSCA ID — gives them 20% discount on medicines, food, and many other things. Very poor seniors also get ₱500 every month. People who turn 100 get a one-time ₱100,000 from the government.

  • Who uses it:
  • OSCA focal
  • Social worker
  • OIC

How to operate

  1. 1

    Open OSCA

    Sidebar → Service programs → OSCA.

  2. 2

    Find the senior

    Search by name. Their age shows in the list — anyone 60+ is highlighted.

  3. 3

    New OSCA ID

    Click + New transaction, pick type "OSCA ID issuance". Print the ID, laminate, give to the senior.

  4. 4

    Replace lost ID

    Same form, type "OSCA ID renewal/replacement". Add a note: "lost", "damaged", or "transferee".

  5. 5

    Enroll in pension

    For very poor seniors, type "Social pension enrollment". The home-visit team will verify, then they get ₱500 every month.

  6. 6

    Centenarian benefit

    For seniors turning 100, type "Centenarian benefit". One-time ₱100,000 from the national government, given by us.

Tips

  • For a new OSCA ID, the senior must bring a PSA birth certificate (or baptismal, or passport). If they have nothing, an affidavit from two trustworthy people works.
  • Birthday cake and Christmas pack distributions are also tracked here — pick "Birthday gift" or "Christmas pack" as the type.

Common mistakes

  • Do not issue an OSCA ID without proof of age. If they cannot prove they are 60, ask them to come back with documents.
