Hi atty. I would just like to ask if there is a minimum amount for the 20% discount to apply to senior citizen? Like for example, the total bill due should be at least php150.00 to be able to avail the said discount? Also, is this 20% discount applicable to non-vat business establishments (like carinderia)? Thank you so much.

hello atty. My mom is undergoing hemodialysis treatment due to Chronic Renal failure for ten years already. All of us (her children) are working already( though I am the only unmarried child) hence when my mom applied for the social pension, she was denied. I really feel that she is qualified because her expenses for dialysis treatment (twice a week ) is far more than our family income but they are requiring her to provide them with the law which says that she is qualified. Further, may I know if there is any law which she can benefit in order to subsidize her expenses in dialysis treatment. Thank you and Godbless

Great afternoon Atty.!

Your article had helped me a lot with my research work about the different benefits that the senior citizens should have.
More power to you!
