Biyuda ng commissioner, putol na ang pensiyon 'pag nag-asawa uli

Dear Chief Acosta,
Nais kong malaman kung ang asawa ng retired Commissioner ng Commission on Audit (COA) ay makatatanggap pa rin ng mga benepisyo sa oras na mag-asawa siyang muli? — Marie
Dear Marie,
Para sa inyong kaalaman, nakasaad sa Section 1 ng Republic Act No. 10084 o mas kilala bilang “An Act Granting Survivorship Benefits to the Surviving Legitimate Spouse of a Deceased Retired Member of the Commission on Audit, Commission on Elections, Civil Service Commission and The Ombudsman, and For Other Purposes,” na:
“Section 1. In case of the death of retired Chairman or Commissioner of the Commission on Audit, the Commission on Elections, the Civil Service Commission and the Ombudsman, the surviving legitimate spouse of said deceased retiree shall be entitled to receive on a monthly basis all the retirement benefits that the said deceased retiree was receiving at the time of his/her demise under the provisions of applicable retirement laws then in force. The said surviving legitimate spouse shall continue to receive such retirement benefits during his/her lifetime or until he/she remarries: Provided, That if the surviving legitimate spouses is receiving under existing retirement laws, he/she shall only be entitled to the difference between the amount provided for in this Act and the benefits he/she is receiving.” (Binigyang-diin)
Malinaw na mapuputol ang pagtanggap ng benepisyo mula sa pagreretiro ng mga namayapang Commissioner ng Commission on Audit (COA), Commission on Elections (Comelec), Civil Service Commission (CSC) at Office of the Ombudsman, sa oras na mag-asawang muli ang kanilang mga naiwang asawa.
