Employer Report of Special Wage Payments

OMB 0960-0565 ยท SSA.

OMB 0960-0565

SSA collects information on the SSA-131 to prevent earnings-related overpayments, and to avoid erroneous withholding of benefits. SSA field offices and program service centers also use Form SSA-131 for awards and post entitlement events requiring special wage payment verification from employers. While we need this information to ensure the correct payment of benefits, we do not require employers to respond. The respondents are large and small businesses that make special wage payments to retirees.

The latest form for Employer Report of Special Wage Payments expires 2026-08-31 and is listed under ICR 201912-0960-004.
