LAVELLE Special to The Dallas Post People who receive Social Secur- ity or supplemental security income (SSI) payments very often forget to notify Social Security when they move or change their address, par- ticularly if they have direct deposit. Failure to notify Social Security of a change of address is one of the most frequent causes of failure to receive the monthly payment. One reason for this appears to be the fact that many people assume it is enough to notify the post office when they change their address. However, the post office only for- wards the mail to the new address for one year. Then it automatically sends back any mail that is not properly addressed. Many people have their checks sent directly to their accounts in a bank or other financial institution. Direct deposit makes it unnecessary to wait in line to cash their check and may avoid the risk of theft or loss. However, Social Security also sends out important information to beneficiaries that may affect their benefits. If Social Security does not have a current address, the benefi- ciary may miss out on important information that could result in their payment being reduced or stopped without their receiving prior notice. SSI recipients may have additional problems if they do not report their new address. Their living arrangements are part of the basis on which their payments are granted. Failure to report a change in living arrangements could result in an overpayment — receiving benefits to which they are not eligi- ble or even an extra payment. The law requires overpayments to be repaid. A change in address may be reported by telephone, mail, or by visiting any Social Security office.
