This section describes how to code bank data for international direct deposit (IDD)
of Title II benefits to a financial institution (FI) in Croatia. The Social Security
Administration (SSA) stores bank data on the Master Beneficiary Record (MBR) in the
same fields used for United States (U.S.) direct deposit.
Special coding identifies the data as a Croatia direct deposit and allows SSA to route
benefit payments through the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas (FRBKC) and the processor
bank in Croatia to the beneficiary's FI.
If you receive an IDD request in a U.S. domestic (i.e, non-border) field office (FO),
forward all appropriate information to the Office of Earnings and International Operations,
(OEIO, DIO) for processing.
