Abstract: In cases where SSA determines that it is not in a beneficiary's best interest to receive payments directly as it may cause substantial harm, the beneficiaries may dispute this decision. If they do, they provide SSA with information which SSA will take into consideration when reevaluating the decision. Representative payees must also provide SSA with information regarding their relationship with the beneficiary, responsibility for the beneficiary, and how payments were used for the beneficiary. Respondents are beneficiaries and representative payees.
