These programs meet our criteria for income maintenance and health maintenance programs. In connection with the retirement program, the RRB has administrative responsibilities under the Social Security Act for certain benefit payments and railroad workers' Medicare coverage. RRB also administers a representative payee program for which we may disclose information to RRB.

We may disclose certain tax and non-tax return information to RRB to administer the Railroad Retirement and Social Security Acts relating to railroad employment. For more information about disclosures of tax return information without consent to RRB, see GN 03320.015C.2.
