My Social Security’s Representative Payee Portal

Millions of Americans who get monthly Social
Security benefits or Supplemental Security Income payments need help managing
their money, and may need a representative payee. A representative payee is a person or
an organization we appoint to receive and manage a person’s benefits.

Representative payees must know the beneficiary’s
needs to decide the best use of benefits for their care and well-being. To help with this responsibility, representative payees can now receive,
save, email, and print a benefit verification letter for a person they
represent using their own my Social Security account, at www.ssa.gov/myaccount.

Many representative payees are responsible for
completing an annual form to account for the benefit payments they receive and
manage. Representative payees can fill
out the form and return it to Social Security by mail, or conveniently file it online
at www.ssa.gov/myaccount/rep-payee.html.

Please visit www.ssa.gov/payee
if you have questions about representative payees.
