SSA will insert the following revised Privacy Act Statement into the form as soon as possible:
Privacy Act Statement
Collection and Use of Personal Information
Sections 205(a), 223(d), 1631(d)(1), and 1631(e)(1) of the Social Security Act, as amended, allow us to collect this information. Furnishing us this information is voluntary. However, failing to provide all or part of the information may prevent an accurate and timely decision on any disability claim filed.
We will use the information you provide to make a determination of eligibility for benefits. We may also share your information for the following purposes, called routine uses:
To contractors and other Federal agencies, as necessary, for the purpose of assisting the Social Security Administration (SSA) in the efficient administration of its programs. We will disclose information under this routine use only in situations in which we may enter into a contractual or similar agreement to obtain assistance in accomplishing an SSA function relating to this system of records; and
To applicants, claimants, prospective applicants or claimants, other than the data subject, their authorized representatives or representative payees to the extent necessary to pursue Social Security claims and to representative payees when the information pertains to individuals for whom they serve as representative payees, for the purpose of assisting SSA in administering its representative payment responsibilities under the Social Security Act and assisting the representative payees in performing their duties as payees, including receiving and accounting for benefits for individuals for whom they serve as payees.
In addition, we may share this information in accordance with the Privacy Act and other Federal laws. For example, where authorized, we may use and disclose this information in computer matching programs, in which our records are compared with other records to establish or verify a person’s eligibility for Federal benefit programs and for repayment of incorrect or delinquent debts under these programs.
A list of additional routine uses is available in our Privacy Act System of Records Notices (SORN) 60-0089, entitled Claims Folders System, as published in the Federal Register (FR) on October 31, 2019, at 84 FR 58422, and 60-0320, entitled Electronic Disability Claim File, as published in the FR on June 4, 2020, at 85 FR 34477. Additional information, and a full listing of all of our SORNs, is available on our website at www.ssa.gov/privacy.
