About the Privacy Act
The Social Security Act (Sections 204, 1631(b), and 1870) and
the Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969 allow us to
collect the facts on this form. This form is voluntary. However, if
you do not give us the facts we ask for, we may not be able to
approve your waiver request. If we cannot collect the
overpayment, we may ask the Justice Department to collect it.
Sometimes the law requires us to give out the facts on this form
without your consent. We must give these facts to another person
or government agency if Federal law requires that we do so or to
do the research and audits needed to monitor and improve the
programs we manage.
We may also give these facts to the Justice Department to
investigate and prosecute violations of the Social Security Act or
we may use the facts in computer matching programs. Matching
programs compare our records with those of other Federal, State,
or local government agencies. All the Agencies may use matching
programs to find or prove that a person qualifies for benefits paid
for or managed by the Federal government. Another use is to
identify and collect overpayments or to collect overdue loans
under these benefits programs.

Sections 204, 1631(b), and 1870 of the Social Security Act, as amended, and the Federal
Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969 authorize us to collect this information. The
information you provide will be used to make a determination on waiving overpayment
recovery or changing your repayment rate.

We rarely use the information you supply for any purpose other than for determining
waiver or a change in the repayment rate of an overpayment recovery. However, we may
use it for the administration and integrity of Social Security programs. We may also
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 an agency to assist Social Security in establishing
rights to Social Security benefits and/or coverage;
2. To comply with Federal laws requiring the release of information from Social
Security records (e.g., to the Government Accountability Office and
Department of Veterans’ Affairs);
3. To facilitate statistical research, audit or investigative activities necessary to
assure the integrity of Social Security programs; and
4. To the Department of Justice when representing the Social Security
Administration in litigation.
We may also use the information you provide in computer matching programs. Matching
programs compare our records with records kept by other Federal, state or local
government agencies. Information from these matching programs can be used to establish
or verify a person’s eligibility for Federally funded or administered benefit programs and
for repayment of payments or delinquent debts under these programs.

Request For Waiver Of Overpayment Recovery Or
Change In Repayment Rate - Form SSA-632-BK
When To Use this
Form

OVERPAYMENT: If SSA determines you have received
benefits to which you are not entitled we will request you
refund the overpayment. The letter we send will tell you that
if you believe you should not have to pay the money back
you should file a request for waiver of overpayment
recovery. To file a formal waiver request, you need to
complete a form SSA-632-BK, Request for Waiver of
Overpayment Recovery or Change In Repayment Rate.
RECONSIDERATION VS WAIVER: If you feel that the
overpayment amount is incorrect, or that you are not really
overpaid, you may file a form SSA-561-U2, Request for
Reconsideration. If you agree that you have been overpaid
but you feel you should not have to pay it back because you
did not cause the overpayment and you cannot afford to
refund it or repaying it would be unfair, you should file the
form SSA-632-BK, Request for Waiver of Overpayment
Recovery Or Change In Repayment Rate.
If you disagree with the overpayment decision and feel you
should not have to pay it back even if you were overpaid,
you can file both reconsideration and waiver.
EVIDENCE: When you file a request for waiver you need to
present any papers you have verifying your financial
statements. This would include items such as current bank
statements, utility bills, pay stubs, credit card payments,
loan payments, etc. If you do not have these records
immediately available, do not delay filing. You have up to
thirty days from filing the request to supply them.
The following section explains how to complete the SSA632-BK. The SSA-632-BK and supporting documents
should be either mailed or taken to your local Social
Security office. If you have further questions about the SSA632-BK, or any other Social Security matter, you may call 1800-772-1213 or contact your local SSA office.
