The Department of Social Welfare and Development Region 7 would like to clarify that it has not suspended the payouts to Pantawid beneficiaries due to election ban.

RD Geamala also said that “how can we suspend Pantawid payouts when we have already finished the payout for P5 last March 27, 2019 and the tentative schedule for P6 payout will be this April yet.”

We will immediately inform our partner beneficiaries once the schedule of payout is confirmed.
