SSA uses the information it collects on Form SSAÂ612 to ensure federal Old Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) payments are correct. It is essential beneficiaries notify SSA of any information that may affect their continuing entitlement to disability benefits. To facilitate and encourage timely reporting of such events, SSA furnishes beneficiaries a Form SSAÂ612. The beneficiary completes and returns the form to SSA when there is a change in his/her circumstances. When a beneficiary reports a change, SSA investigates any reported work activity or improvement in the beneficiaryÂs condition, updates its records, and makes necessary payment changes. The respondents are recipients of federal OASDI benefits.
