I’m not required to submit Representative Payee Report. How can I correct this misinformation?

Q) I’ve been trying to communicate to the SSA that I’m not required to submit Representative Payee Report. How can I correct this misinformation?

A ) If you have been assigned a representative payee by the Social Security Administration (SSA) and you believe that you are capable of managing your benefits on your own, you should contact the SSA as soon as possible to request that they review your case.

You can do this by contacting your local Social Security office by phone or in person. Explain that you believe you are capable of managing your benefits on your own and request a review of your case. They may ask you to provide documentation or evidence to support your claim.

If the SSA determines that you no longer need a representative payee, they will make the necessary changes to your account and your benefits will be paid directly to you.

According to the Social Security Administration “Social Security’s Representative Payment Program provides benefit payment management for our beneficiaries who are incapable of managing their Social Security or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments. We appoint a suitable representative payee (payee) who manages the payments on behalf of the beneficiaries.”

Please call the SSA at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) to discuss your concerns regarding Representative Payee Report.
