Do i need to update or inform FWCMS once I have purchased the insurance?

Do I Need to Update FWCMS After Purchasing Insurance?

No.
No manual update or notification to FWCMS is required after you have successfully purchased SPIKPA IG insurance using FWCMS ITR.

Once the insurance purchase is completed, the entire process is handled automatically between the insurance company and the FWCMS system.

What Happens After a Successful SPIKPA IG Insurance Purchase?

After your insurance purchase is successful, the following steps occur automatically:

1. The insurance company sends confirmation directly to FWCMS
2. FWCMS will automatically update the worker’s insurance status from “ITR Generated” to “Insurance Purchased”
3. The EPLKS / Work Permit renewal process continues automatically without any further action required from the employer or PIC
4. You will receive:

• An email from the insurance company confirming the policy issuance
• An email from FWCMS confirming that the insurance has been successfully updated

Is the SPIKPA Slip Required for Permit Renewal?

No.
When insurance is purchased using FWCMS ITR, the SPIKPA slip is not required.

All permit renewals are processed automatically within FWCMS, as the insurance status is updated electronically.
