DI 11050: Railroad (RR) Cases

BASIC (10-07)

If an inquiry by a career RR employee does not result in the filing of a DIB or freeze application with SSA:

  • Send any material accumulated in developing the inquiry to:

    Railroad Retirement Board
    Disability Benefits Division
    844 N Rush Street,
    Chicago Illinois, 60611-2092
  • Use an SSA-408 (Route Slip) to forward this material, and annotate “Claimant did not file claim with SSA.”

  • Include copies of any letters referring the NH to the RRB with the transferred material. Do not send copies of referral letters to RRB unless the FO also has disability material of probative value to forward to the RRB.
