We may share the information you provide to other
agencies through computer matching programs.
Matching programs compare our records with
records kept by other Federal, State, or local
government agencies. We can use the information
from these matching programs to establish or verify
a person's eligibility for federally funded or
administered benefit programs and for repayment of
incorrect payments or delinquent debts under these
programs.
This information collection meets the requirements
of 44 U.S.C. § 3507, as amended by section 2 of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. You do not
need to answer these questions unless we display a
valid Office of Management and Budget control
number. We estimate that it will take about 15
minutes to read the instructions, gather the facts,
and answer the questions. SEND OR BRING THE
COMPLETED FORM TO YOUR LOCAL SOCIAL
SECURITY OFFICE. You can find your local
Social Security office through SSA’s website at
www.socialsecurity.gov. Offices are also listed
under U. S. Government agencies in your
telephone directory or you may call Social
Security at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778).
You may send comments on our time estimate
above to: SSA, 6401 Security Blvd, Baltimore, MD
21235-6401. Send only comments relating to our
time estimate to this address, not the completed
form.
Sections 204 and 1631(b) of the Social Security
Act, as amended, authorize us to collect this
information. We will use the information you
provide to make a determination on waiving
overpayment recovery or changing your
repayment rate.
Furnishing us this information is voluntary.
However, failing to provide us with all or part of
the information could prevent us from making an
accurate decision on your benefits.
We rarely use the information you supply for any
purpose other than the reason stated above.
However, we may use the information for the
administration of our programs, including sharing
information:
1. To comply with Federal laws requiring the
release of information from Social Security
records (e.g., to the Government
Accountability Office and Department of
Veterans Affairs); and,
2. To facilitate statistical research, audit, or
investigative activities necessary to ensure the
integrity and improvement of our programs
(e.g., to the Bureau of the Census and to
private entities under contract with us)
A list of when we may share your information
with others, called routine uses, is available in
our System of Records Notices entitled, Claims
Folder System, 60-0089, Master Beneficiary
Record, 60-0090, and Recovery of
Overpayments, Accounting and Reporting/Debt
Management System, 60-0094. Additional
information about these and other system of
records notices and our programs, is available
on-line at www.socialsecurity.gov or at your local
Social Security office.
