Things to Remember


Your PRC will expire on February 16, 2006 or when you create a password.

What You Can Do With Your Password


You can use your password and Social Security number to view and make changes to your information online or by phone (for example, you can change your address or check your benefit information). In order to use your password to view and make changes, your must have received:

  • Your notice of benefit payment, or

  • Your first payment.


NOTE: If you are a new beneficiary, you can only use this password to check your information starting with the first month your benefit payment begins. You can find this start date on the notice of benefit payment letter that we sent to you.

You can also use your password and Social Security number to start direct deposit of your checks online.


The benefits of using direct deposit are:

  • It’s safe. There are no checks to be lost or stolen.

  • It’s convenient. You will get your benefits on time, even if you’re out of town, sick or unable to get to the bank.

  • It’s secure. You are in control of your money. You choose the account where your Social Security payment is deposited.


Please protect your password and do not keep it with your Social Security number.
