Each month the Social Security Administration (SSA) asks a few people, who get benefit payments, to help us make sure we pay everyone the correct amount of money. We picked you this month by chance, not for any other reason.
To make sure you receive the correct amount, I would like to telephone you at your home on Monday, July 18, 2011 at 09:00 a.m. (Central Time).
I am with the Office of Quality Performance, which is a special reviewing section in SSA, and is separate from the office that processed your claim. If you would like to verify that this is a legitimate letter, you can call SSA. The national toll-free number is (800) 772-1213.
What Will Happen When I Call You
I will identify myself as shown on the bottom of this letter.
I will ask you questions about your benefits.
The Privacy Act Statement that allows this review is enclosed.
How You Can Get Ready for My Call
I have enclosed a form with the items checked that you should have available when I call.
You may have a friend or relative present to help you during my call.
Please Return the Enclosed Form to Me
Please complete and sign forms SSA 8552 and SSA 2935-U3, and mail them to me in the enclosed envelope. You do not need a stamp.
If you have any questions, you may call me between 08:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. My telephone number is (866) 755-5346 Ext. 14910. Thank you.
Sincerely,

Completion of this form is voluntary; however, failure to provide all or part of the information could prevent us from correctly reviewing your Social Security benefits.
We rarely use this information you supply for any purpose other than for reviewing your claim for Social Security benefits. 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:
To enable a third party or an agency to assist Social Security in establishing rights to Social Security benefits and/or coverage;
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);
To make determinations for eligibility in similar health and income maintenance programs at the Federal, State, and local level; and,
To facilitate statistical research, audit, or investigative activities necessary to assure the integrity and improvement of Social Security programs.
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.
Additional information regarding this form, routine uses of information, and our programs and systems is available on-line at www.socialsecurity.gov or at your local Social Security office.
