Grandparents will receive their extra benefits in January 2025.
Sen. Bong Revilla Jr., who mainly promoted the Republic Act 11982 or 'Expanding the Coverage of Centenarians Act,' said thousands of grandparents would benefit when the funds for this are released.The amended law provides that all Filipinos, whether residing in the Philippines or abroad, upon reaching the age of 100, shall receive a cash gift of one P100,000 and a letter of felicitation from the President of the Philippines congratulating the celebrant for their longevity.
We will immediately give them upon reaching 80 and then provide them again when they reach 85, 90 and 95 years old. And if the Lord grants that they reach a hundred years, we will give them a more significant amount in recognition of what they have achieved,' said Revilla.
