This legislation proposes to amend the Social Security Act by imposing a 10-year limitation on the recovery of overpayments. It specifically targets overpayments made under Title II , which encompasses Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance benefits, and Title XVI , covering Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments. The primary goal is to prevent the federal government from indefinitely pursuing the recovery of funds erroneously paid to beneficiaries, thereby offering greater financial security. Under the bill's provisions, if an overpayment occurred 10 or more years prior to the date the Commissioner of Social Security determines that an overpayment was made, the United States would be prohibited from adjusting future payments or recovering the funds. This means that once a decade has passed since the overpayment event, the government would be barred from seeking its return, regardless of when the error is discovered. The act aims to protect individuals from unexpected demands for repayment of very old overpayments.
