Annually, the Central Processing Sites (CPS) mail a Form SSA-2001-F6, (Representative
Payee Report-Special Veterans Benefits) to every SVB representative payee. The accounting
form requests information about the following:
-
•
the payee's current address;
-
•
the custody of the beneficiary;
-
•
who decided how benefits were used;
-
•
if benefits were used and/or saved for the beneficiary; and
-
•
how unused benefits were saved.
Payees are instructed to return the completed accountings to the CPS which sent the
form. Accountings are processed manually by the CPS since resources required for automation
are not justified in light of the very small number of cases at this time.
Accountings are requested more frequently if the facts of a case suggest misuse or
if there are questions about a payee's suitability.
