Privacy Act Statement Collection and Use of Personal Information
Section 202 of the Social Security Act, as amended, authorizes us to collect this information. We will use the information you
provide to determine the effect of your pension on your Social Security benefit. Furnishing us this information is voluntary.
However, failing to provide us with all or part of the information may prevent an accurate and timely decision on your claim and
could affect your Social Security benefit. We rarely use the information you supply for any purpose other than making a
determination relating to the effect of your pension on your Social Security benefit. However, we may use the information for the
administration of our programs including sharing information: 1. To comply with Federal laws requiring the release of information
from our records (e.g., to the Government Accountability Office and Department of Veterans Affairs); and, 2. To facilitate
statistical research, audit, or investigative activities necessary to assure the integrity and improvement of our programs (e.g., to
the Bureau of the Census and to private entities under contract with us). A complete list of when we may share your information
with others, called routine uses, is available in our Privacy Act System of Records Notices entitled Claims Folders Systems,
60-0089, and Master Beneficiary Record, 60-0090. Additional information about these and other system of records notices and
our programs is available from our Internet website at www.socialsecurity.gov or at your local Social Security office. We may
share the information you provide to other health agencies through computer matching programs. Matching programs compare
our records with records kept by other Federal, State, or local government agencies. We use the information from these programs
to establish or verify a person’s eligibility for federally funded or administered benefit programs and for repayment of incorrect
payments or delinquent debts under these programs.
Paperwork Reduction Act Statement - This information collection meets the requirements of 44 U.S.C. § 3507, as amended by
section 2 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. You do not need to answer these questions unless we display a valid Office of
Management and Budget control number. We estimate that it will take about 12.5 minutes to read the instructions, gather the
facts, and answer the questions. SEND OR BRING THE COMPLETED FORM TO YOUR LOCAL SOCIAL SECURITY
OFFICE. You can find your local Social Security office through SSA’s website at www.socialsecurity.gov. Offices are
