A. BACKGROUND

Title VIII representative payee information will not be maintained on the Representative Payee System (RPS). This information can be posted to the SSR through a 1719B input.

If a 1719B containing representative payee data is transmitted to a MSSICS record, the pending file will be locked.

If these cases are seeded into MSSICS, the pending file will not be updated with the representative payee data.

B. PROCEDURES

1. No Change in Rep Payee

If there is no change in the representative payee, take the following actions:

  • Terminate the representative payee relationship in the Representative Payee System (RPS). See MSOM RPS 005.004.

  • Transmit a 1719B with the representative payee information. The date of selection should equal the date the representative payee was selected for title VIII.

2. Change in Rep Payee

If there is a change in representative payee, take the following actions:

  • Terminate the representative payee relationship in RPS.

  • Transmit a 1719B with new representative payee information. See SM 01301.000 ff.
