  iba iba ang salary packaging ...
  
  From my wife's experience sasabihin nila ang available at ikaw ang pipili ... either you can do a grocery package .. or pwedeng yung pagkain nyo sa labas ... or pwede mong i diretso sa pagbabayad mo ng mortgage .... normally sa mga not-for-profit organization ito ... ang kagandahan po nito ay you pay less tax because it will be deducted before your taxable income .. so mas mababa ang tax bracket mo ...
  
  last time dinidiretso namin sa mortgage
