Privacy Act Statement
Collection and Use of Personal Information
Sections 205(j)(3) and 1631(a)(2)(c) of the Social Security Act, as amended, authorize us to collect this
information. We will use the information you provide to determine your suitability to continue being a
representative payee and to determine if the beneficiary's current needs are being met.
Furnishing us this information is voluntary. However, failing to provide us with all or part of the information may
cause us to terminate you as a representative payee.
We rarely use the information you supply us for any purpose other than to make a determination regarding
your suitability as representative payee and the beneficiary's current needs. We may disclose information to
another person or to another agency in accordance with approved routine uses, which include but are not
limited to the following:
1. To enable a third party or agency to assist us in establishing rights to Social Security benefits
and/or coverage;
2. To comply with Federal laws requiring the release of information from our records (e.g., to the
Government Accountability Office and Department of Veterans Affairs);
3. To make determinations for eligibility in similar health and income maintenance programs at the
Federal, State, and local level; and,
4. To facilitate statistical research, audit, or investigative activities necessary to assure the integrity and
improvement of our programs (e.g., to the Bureau of the Census and to private entities under
contract with us).
We also may use the information you give us in computer matching programs. Matching programs compare
our records with records kept by other Federal, State and local government agencies. We use the information
from these 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.
A complete list of routine uses of the information you provided us is available in our Systems of Records
Notices entitled, Claims Folder System, 60-0089 and Master Representative Payee File, 60-0222. These
notices, additional information regarding this form, and information regarding our programs and systems, are
available online at www.socialsecurity.gov or at your local Social Security office.

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 30 minutes to read the instructions, gather the facts, and answer the questions related to
representative payment. SEND OR BRING THE COMPLETED FORM TO YOUR LOCAL SOCIAL SECURITY
OFFICE. The office is listed under U. S. Government agencies in your telephone directory or you may
