Background
POMS section SL 60001.642 contains information on the types of court reporters for purposes of coverage under
Section 218 Agreements and the mandatory coverage provisions. Court reporters can
be employees of a State or local government entity, private firm, or they can be self
employed. This section is a reinstatement of material originally posted as Section
617 in the August 1995 version of the State and Local Handbook (SSA-Pub. No. 16-055).
Section 617 was removed when the Handbook was posted online.
