PRIVACY ACT/PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT NOTICE

The Privacy Act requires us to notify you that we are authorized to collect this information by section 205(a) of the Social Security Act. You do not have to provide the information requested. The data you provide, however, will allow the Social Security Administration to determine the age and/or citizenship of a person who is applying for Social Security or Supplemental Security Income benefits. If you do not complete this form, that person may not be entitled to benefits. We do not disclose the information you provide to any person or other government agency.

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 give us may be used or given out are available in Social Security offices. If you want to learn more about this, contact any Social Security office.

Paperwork Reduction Act Statement – 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 10 minutes to read the instructions, gather the facts, and answer the questions. SEND 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 call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213. You may send comments on our time estimate above to: SSA, 1338 Annex Building, Baltimore, MD 21235-6401. Send only comments relating to our time estimate to this address, not the completed form.
