The overpaid individual uses the SSA632BK to request a waiver of recovery of an overpayment. The individual explains why they feel they are without fault in causing the overpayment and provides financial information, so SSA can determine whether recovery would cause financial hardship. If the individual agrees to repay the overpayment, they can use the SSA632BK to inform SSA they want to repay at a monthly rate that would take more than thirty-six months to recover the overpayment. The individual can also use the SSA632BK to request a different rate of recovery. In those cases, they must provide financial information to SSA for a determination of how much the overpaid person can afford to repay each month. Respondents are overpaid beneficiaries or claimants who are requesting a waiver of recovery of the overpayment, or a lesser rate of withholding.
