Advise the subject individual to contact the custodian regarding amendment of any
public record he or she believes to be incorrect; e.g., a copy of a birth certificate.
EXAMPLE:
An SSI recipient alleges that his age is 68, rather than 67, the age proven by documentary
evidence in file. Without evidence to support the recipient's allegation, refuse his
request to amend the record. Allow him to file a statement of disagreement (see GN 03345.020) if he wishes to do so.
