Privacy Act Statement
Collection and Use of Personal Information
Sections 205(a), 223(d), and 1631(e) of the Social Security Act, as amended, allow us to collect this information.
Furnishing us this information is voluntary. However, failing to provide all or part of the information may prevent us
from reconsidering and reviewing your initial or continuing disability determination or evaluating any request for a
hearing.
We will use the information you provide to update your disability appeal information. The information we collect also
assists the State DDSs and administrative law judges in preparing for the appeals and hearings, and issuing a
determination or decision on an individual’s entitlement (initial or continuing) to disability benefits.
We may also share your information for the following purposes, called routine uses:
1. To State audit agencies for auditing State supplementation payments and Medicaid eligibility
considerations;
2. To third party contacts where necessary to establish or verify information provided by representative
payees or payee applicants; and
3. To Federal, State or local agencies for administering cash or non-cash income maintenance or health
maintenance programs.
In addition, we may share this information in accordance with the Privacy Act and other Federal laws. For example,
where authorized, we may use and disclose this information in computer matching programs, in which our records are
compared with other records to establish or verify a person’s eligibility for Federal benefit programs and for
repayment of incorrect or delinquent debts under these programs.
A list of additional routine uses is available in our Privacy Act System of Records Notices (SORNs) 60-0089, entitled
Claims Folders Systems; 60-0090, entitled Master Beneficiary Record; 60-0320, entitled Electronic Disability; and
60-0103, entitled Supplemental Security Income Record and Special Veterans Benefits. Additional information and a
full listing of all our SORNs are available on our website at www.socialsecurity.gov/foia/bluebook.
