PRE-1957 MILITARY SERVICE -- FEDERAL BENEFIT QUESTIONNAIRE
Privacy Act Statement - Section 217, of the Social Security Act, as amended, authorizes us to collect this information. The information is needed to permit the
Social Security Administration (SSA) to establish whether the wage earner's military service may be used to determine entitlement to or the amount of Social
Security benefits. The information you furnish on this form is voluntary. However, failure to provide all or part of the information requested on this form could result
in the loss of some benefits or insurance coverage.

See Revised Privacy Act Statement Attached

We rarely use the information you supply for any purpose other than making a determination upon your claim. 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: (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
Veteran Affairs); (3) to make determinations for eligibility in similar health and income maintenance programs at the Federal, State, and local level; (4) to State
agencies to assist in the determination process for initial and continuing eligibility in their income maintenance programs; (5) to the Department of Education for
determining the eligibility of applicants for Basic Educational Opportunity Grants; and (6) to facilitate statistical research, audit or investigative activities necessary to
assure the integrity 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 and
administered benefit programs and for repayment of payments or delinquent debts under these programs.
A complete list of routine uses for this information is available in Systems of Record Notices 60-0089 and 60-0103. The notices, additional information regarding
this form, and information regarding our programs and systems, are available on-line at www.socialsecurity.gov or at your local Social Security office.
