Privacy Act Statement
Collection and Use of Personal Information
Sections 204, 1631, and 1879 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 an accurate and timely decision on your request for change in overpayment recovery rate.
We will use the information to make a determination regarding overpayment recovery. We may also share
your information for the following purposes, called routine uses:
• To employers to assist the Social Security Administration (SSA) in the collection of debts owed by
former beneficiaries and representative payees of Social Security payments who received an
overpayment and owe a delinquent debt to the SSA; and
• To another Federal agency that has asked SSA to effect an administrative offset under common
law or under 31 U.S.C. § 3716 to help collect a debt owed the United States.
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 (SORN) 60-0094,

the Federal Register (FR) on August 23, 2005, at 70 FR 49354; 60-0231, entitled Financial Transactions of
