CHILD RELATIONSHIP STATEMENT

Privacy Act/Paperwork Act Notice: The information requested by this form is authorized by Section 216(h) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 416(h)). Your
response to the following questions will be used to help establish the child's relationship to the worker on whose record a claim has been filed. Completion of this
form is voluntary. Failure to provide all or any part of the requested information will hinder the development of the child's claim and may result in denial of the
claim. The information you furnish may be disclosed by Social Security to another person or to another governmental agency for the following purposes: (1) to
assist Social Security in establishing the right of an individual to Social Security benefits: (2) to facilitate statistical research and audit activities necessary to assure
the integrity and improvement of the Social Security programs (e.g., the Bureau of the Census): and (3) to comply with Federal laws requiring the exchange of
information between Social Security and another agency (e.g., the General Accounting Office).
We may also use the information you give us when we match records by computer. Matching programs compare our records with those of other Federal, State, or
local government agencies. Many agencies may use matching programs to find or prove that a person qualifies for benefits paid by the federal government. The
law allows us to do this even if you do not agree to it.
Explanations about these and other reasons why information you provide us may be used or given out are available in Social Securitey offices. If you want to learn
more about this, contact any Social Security office.
