How to Get Your Social Security Benefit Rate Certificate Online If You Live and Receive Your Pension Abroad

If you are a beneficiary of a contributory pension from the Department of Social Security in Malta, such as Retirement Pension, Invalidity Pension, or Widow/er’s Pension, and you live and receive your pension abroad, you may need to get a benefit rate certificate from time to time. This is a document that shows the amount and type of your pension, and it may be required by the social security institutions of the country where you live.

Getting your benefit rate certificate used to be a hassle, as you had to contact the Department of Social Security and wait for them to send you the document by mail. However, thanks to the mySocialSecurity App, you can now get your benefit rate certificate online in a few easy steps.
