yeah right. it was a ss worker person laid that info on me.. but I will see if I can find it in writing.. hold on.
that is a simple system edit to allow only one check to be issued per month to any SS number.
Issue a check set a flag for that SS number in the data Base. If another check tries to come thru and the flag is less than 30 days old raise an alarm.
I'm only telling you what the person sitting in the SS office told me. Shrug! But they have been know to mail rebate checks to dead people overseas who have never been US citizens so I tend to believe the woman.
Not knowing someone is dead is one thing, mailing multiple checks for the same SS number per month ... Well I have to call BS on that one.
Is there a rule that says once you qualify for SS benefits that you have to keep living in the USA?
