The "Did You Forget?" billing statement is the first reminder bill a debtor receives when he/she has not made a repayment agreement and fails to make a payment for an overpayment in active status on RECOOP.

If there is no installment agreement in effect for a Title II overpayment, this bill generates 45 days after the overpayment establishment date. For Title XVI overpayments, this bill generates 40 days after the notice date entered on the SSR.

In either situation, the payment due date is 18 days after the statement date. The amount due will be the full outstanding overpayment balance.

        Privacy Act and Paperwork Reduction Act Statements

 

The Social Security Administration (SSA) has authority to collect the information requested on the PAYMENT STUB under section 204 of the Social Security Act. Giving us this information is voluntary. You do not have to do it. We will need this information only if you choose to make payment by credit card. You do not need to fill out the credit card information if you choose another means of payment (for example, by check or money order).

 

If you choose the credit card payment option, we will provide the information you give us to the banks handling your credit card account and SSA’s account. This will allow you to repay your overpayment with your credit card. We may also provide this information to another person or government agency to comply with federal laws requiring the release of information from our records. You can find these and other routine uses of information provided to SSA listed in the Federal Register. If you want more information about this, you may call or write any Social Security office.

 

We may also use the information you give us when we match records by computer. Matching programs compare our records with those of other Federal, State, or local government agencies. Many agencies may use matching programs to find or prove that a person qualifies for benefits paid by the Federal government. The law allows us to do this even if you do not agree to it.

 

Explanations about these and other reasons why information you provide us may be used or given out are available in Social Security offices. If you want to learn more about this, contact any Social Security office.

 

This information collection meets the clearance requirements of 44 U.S.C. section 3507, as amended by section 2 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. You are not required to answer these questions unless we display a valid Office of Management Budget control number. We estimate that it will take you about 6 minutes to read the instructions, gather the necessary facts, and answer the questions.
