C. Description of form NL/VS3

  • Part 1 (INFORMATION ABOUT THE CLAIMS) contains general information about the claim including, if known, the U.S. SSN

  • Part 2 (VERIFICATION OF INFORMATION) contains spaces for the Dutch agencies to indicate the claimants' names, dates of birth and other event dates and to indicate whether these dates have been verified by acceptable evidence.

  • Part 3 (MATERIAL ATTACHED) contains information from the Dutch agency that indicates whether evidence is attached.

  • Part 4 (INFORMATION REQUESTED FROM USA) contains a list of the types of information that a Dutch agency might request from DIO. A check in block b., “an agreement claim has been made” constitutes authority to disclose information to the Dutch in the absence of a signed U.S. application form SSA-2490, Dutch application form NL/VS 202 or 203 or other signed statement.

  • In the REMARKS portion the Dutch agencies often ask for a form “VS/ NL 205” . Such a form does not exist, however, in these instances the Dutch agencies are really requesting a U.S. earnings record.

  • A Dutch agency's request for a “copy of the decision” means that they want to know the claimant's month of entitlement to U.S. benefits and the monthly benefit amount. See GN 01726.220.D.4
