Malate, Manila – The off-site transaction payout for partner-beneficiaries of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program in MIMAROPA Region will be delayed for the months of March and May 2019 due to the end of contract of partner conduits of the Landbank of the Philippines (LBP).

The cash grants under Period 6 (December to January) and Period 1 (February and March) will be received after Landbank has procured another partner conduit who will help them in distributing the cash grant to areas which have limited Landbank branches.

The program ensures that the delay of payout is not due to cash grants being used for election campaigns. The agency does not hold any of the cash grants since the Landbank is responsible of keeping and distributing it to the partner beneficiaries.

Pantawid Pamilya MIMAROPA has been coordinating with Landbank to arrange the schedule for the next off-site transaction payout.

Meanwhile, beneficiaries with cash cards can coordinate with their Municipal/City Links and/or Municipal Roving Bookkeeper (MRB) for the exact schedule of payouts considering that the top ups and loading of cash grants are put on hold until further notice from the DSWD. ###
