IMPORTANT INFORMATION - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
The Information you give on this form is confidential. We need the information to send your U.S. Social Security payments
electronically to your Swedish bank account.
WHEN YOU WILL RECEIVE YOUR DIRECT DEPOSIT PAYMENTS
You will receive your payment through the Swedish banking system and will usually be in your bank account shortly after the
regular payment date. With direct deposit, you will have immediate access to your money. This is the safest way of receiving
your benefits.
INFORMATION ABOUT CURRENCY CONVERSION:
With direct deposit, your U.S. Social Security payment is automatically converted to Swedish Kroner (if applicable) at the daily
international exchange rate before being deposited to your account.
**SPECIAL NOTICE TO JOINT ACCOUNT HOLDERS**
If you have a joint account with a person who receives Social Security payments, and that person dies, you must immediately
contact your bank and the Social Security Administration or the Federal Benefits Unit in your area. You must return to Social
Security any payments deposited into a joint account after the death of a beneficiary.
IF YOUR ADDRESS CHANGES:
If your address changes, you must inform the Federal Benefits Unit or the Social Security Administration. Your
payments may stop if the Social Security Administration needs to contact you and cannot find your location.

Section 205(a) of the Social Security Act, as amended, allows us to collect this information. Furnishing us this information is
voluntary. However, failing to provide all or part of the information may prevent you from receiving benefit payments through

of that agency; and
• To third party contacts where necessary to establish or verify information provided by representative payees or payee
applicants.
In addition, we may share this information in accordance with the Privacy Act and other Federal laws. For example, where

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.
