GN 00301.322 Retention of Paper Material After Faxing into Either the eDIB Folder or Claims Folder
using NDRed
This section modifies all existing policy instructions as they relate to the retention
of paper material.
eClaims Resource documents have been prepared to allow users to know where to store
documents (MCS, MSSICS, Shared EVID, eDIB folder using eView or the Evidence Portal
(EP), or a claim filing record using NDRed in the EP). These documents contain all
appropriate POMS references. See the following links: Title II
Initial Claims Desk Guide for Non-Medical Evidence Documentation and Evidence
Documentation Guide for SSI Non-Disability.
Once an artifact has been stored and viewed for content in either an eDIB claim filing
using eView or the EP, or through the NDRed by using CFUI in the EP, the artifact
need not be retained.
NOTE: The Field Offices and Payment Centers should revert to faxing the SSA-821/SSA-820
and any other related paper documentation for PE cases only into eView or the EP,
or NDRed in the EP.
