Obtain Deferred Benefits Microfilm corresponding to the first five digits (Year and
Pension Block Number) of the DCN as shown in the lower left corner of the form SSA-L99-C1.
-
1.
Locate the item on film by using the last five digits of the DCN (Unit and Sequence
Number), and the social security number and name as shown on the SSA-L99-C1.
-
2.
Conduct the microfilm search in accordance with the following instructions:
-
•
Check at least five pages before and after the position in which the page should have
appeared.
-
•
Check the corrections at the beginning of the reel of film.
Pension items which have a sequence number of “000” will be found in corrections at
the beginning of the reel of film prior to 1980 processing.
NOTE: Due to an operations problem, it was necessary to refilm blocks 001-011 for processing
year 1976. Therefore, many of the corrections for these blocks ONLY will be found
in each unit immediately following the Advice of Transmittal.
