We will use the information to review your claim. We may also share your information for the following purposes, called

to assist in accomplishing an agency function relating to this system of records; and

To student volunteers, individuals working under a personal services contract, and other workers who
technically do not have the status of Federal employees, when they are performing work for SSA as
authorized by law, and they need access to personally identifiable information in SSA records in order to
perform their assigned Agency functions

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
