Addendum to the Supporting Statement for the SSA-1199-(Country)

International Direct Deposit

31 CFR 210

OMB No. 0960-0686

Revisions to Form SSA-1199-Country

Section 1

This section has been clarified to comply with security decisions not to send material with the person’s name and SSN. Instructions now tell the beneficiary to complete Section 1. Previously the beneficiary was directed to review what we had sent in that section and make changes as needed in Section 1A. Section 1A is therefore no longer needed. We put a reason to sign up for IDD in the vacant space.

.

Section 3

There is now a space to include the country where the bank is located.

The bank has a choice to print the bank code, branch code, routing number, and account number, or the IBAN. In some IDD countries, SSA uses the IBAN for coding the MBR.

Return address

The address for Federal Reserve Bank of New York has been removed, as they no longer do the inputs for IDD enrollments.

If Your Address Changes

The reference to the Federal Benefits Unit has been changed slightly. There is no longer an inference that the form will include the address of the Embassy when it is sent to the beneficiary. Federal Reserve Bank of New York has been eliminated as a contact.

Paperwork Reduction Act Statement

The print on the second page has been shifted upward slightly to allow more space for the statement.
