Section 1631(g) of the Social Security Act authorizes us to enter into agreements with State agencies
that identify the terms and conditions of our reimbursement to the State agency for
interim assistance payments the State agency provided to individuals while:
-
•
their applications for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) are being processed, or
-
•
their SSI benefits were suspended or terminated, and we subsequently found them to
have been eligible for SSI benefits for the suspended or terminated period.
We refer to these agreements as IAR Agreements. We may disclose certain non-tax return
information, including verification of Social Security Numbers (SSN), to carry out
the functions of the IAR Agreements under the applicable health-maintenance and income-maintenance
routine use cited in a number of the agency’s systems of records, including but not
limited to the following:
-
•
60-0058—Master Files of SSN Holders and SSN Applications System;
-
•
60-0089—Claims Folders System;
-
•
60-0090—Master Beneficiary Record;
-
•
60-0103—Supplemental Security Income Record and Special Veterans Benefits System;
and
-
•
60-0320—Electronic Disability Claims File.
