A. Exhibit Letter

You received *F1 more in *F2 benefits *F3 than *F4 due. *F5 (OPT188)

 

How To Pay Us Back

Please refund this overpayment within 30 days. Make your check or money order payable to the "Social Security Administration." Include the Social Security Claim Number on the check or money order and send it to us in the enclosed envelope.

*F1

If we do not receive your refund within 30 days, we plan to recover the overpayment by withholding 10 percent of your total monthly benefit or $10 (whichever is more) starting with the payment you will receive on or about *F2. If the total benefit is less than $10, we will withhold the entire benefit. We will continue withholding benefits until we fully recover the overpayment. (3100A)

Or

We will recover the overpayment from the payment you would receive about *F1. The reduced payment will be *F2. You will receive your regular monthly payment about *F3. (3100B)

Or

To recover the overpayment, we will withhold 10 percent of the payment you will receive *F1 until we recover the overpayment. We will do this starting with the payment *F2 you will receive on or about *F3. (3104B)

If You Think You Should Not Have To Pay Us Back

You may not have to pay us back. Sometimes we can waive the collection of an overpayment, which means you will not have to pay us back. For us to waive the collection of your overpayment, two things must be true.

  • It was not your fault that you got too much Social Security money.

    •  

      AND

  • Paying us back would mean you cannot pay your bills for food, clothing, housing, medical care, or other necessary expenses, or it would be unfair for some other reason.

You can ask for waiver at any time by filling out the waiver form. The form number is SSA-632-BK. We will not collect the overpayment while we decide if we can waive collection. If you ask for waiver in the next 30 days, we will not withhold benefits until we decide if we can waive collection.

You may need to show us proof of your monthly income, expenses, and assets. Examples are pay stubs, pension records, rent receipts, utility bills and bank statements.

If you have any questions, you may contact *F1. (3100C)

If You Disagree With The Decision

If you disagree with the decision, you have the right to appeal. A person who did not make the first decision will decide your case. We will review your case again and consider any new facts you have.

  • You have 60 days to ask for an appeal. If you ask in the next 30 days, you will not have to pay us back until we decide your case.

  • Both the 30- and 60-day periods start the day after you receive this letter. We assume you got this letter 5-days after the date on it, unless you show us that you did not get it within the 5-day period.

  • You must have a good reason if you wait more than 60 days to ask for an appeal.

  • You have to ask for an appeal in writing. We will ask you to sign a form called “Request for Reconsideration.” The form number is SSA-561-U2. To get this form, contact one of our offices. We can help you fill out the form.

We are enclosing a pamphlet called “Important Information About Your Appeal and Waiver Rights.” Please be sure to read it.

Even if you do not want to request reconsideration or waiver, call us at 1-800-772-1213 if withholding of the monthly payment will cause hardship. Unless we hear from you within 30 days, we will withhold the benefit as shown above. (3100D Domestic)

If You Want Help With Your Appeal1 (REPC01)

You may choose to have a representative help you. We will work with this person just as we would work with you. If you decide to have a representative, you should find one quickly so that person can start preparing your case.

Many representatives charge a fee only if you receive benefits. Others may represent you for free. Usually, your representative may not charge a fee unless we approve it. Your local Social Security office can give you a list of groups that can help you find a representative.

If you get a representative, you or that person must notify us in writing. You may use our Form SSA-1696 "Appointment of Representative." Any local Social Security office can give you this form. (REP002)
