SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION 

[Docket No. SSA–2016–0063] 

Rate for Assessment on Direct 

Payment of Fees to Representatives in 

2017 

AGENCY: Social Security Administration 

(SSA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: We are announcing that the 

assessment percentage rate under 

sections 206(d) and 1631(d)(2)(C) of the 

Social Security Act (Act), 42 U.S.C. 

406(d) and 1383(d)(2)(C), is 6.3 percent 

for 2017. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Jeffrey C. Blair, Associate General 

Counsel for Program Law, Office of the 

General Counsel, Social Security 

Administration, 6401 Security 

Boulevard, Baltimore, MD 21235–6401. 

Phone: (410) 965–3157, email Jeff.Blair@

ssa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A 

claimant may appoint a qualified 

individual as a representative to act on 

his or her behalf in matters before the 

Social Security Administration (SSA). If 

the claimant is entitled to past-due 

benefits and was represented either by 

an attorney or by a non-attorney 

representative who has met certain 

prerequisites, the Act provides that we 

may withhold up to 25 percent of the 

past-due benefits and use that money to 

pay the representative’s approved fee 

directly to the representative. 

When we pay the representative’s fee 

directly to the representative, we must 

collect from that fee payment an 

assessment to recover the costs we incur 

in determining and paying 

representatives’ fees. The Act provides 

that the assessment we collect will be 

the lesser of two amounts: A specified 

dollar limit; or the amount determined 

by multiplying the fee we are paying by 

the assessment percentage rate. 

(Sections 206(d), 206(e), and 1631(d)(2) 

of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 406(d), 406(e), and 

1383(d)(2).) 

The Act initially set the dollar limit 

at $75 in 2004 and provides that the 

limit will be adjusted annually based on 

changes in the cost-of-living. (Sections 

206(d)(2)(A) and 1631(d)(2)(C)(ii)(I) of 

the Act, 42 U.S.C. 406(d)(2)(A) and 

1383(d)(2)(C)(ii)(I).) The maximum 

dollar limit for the assessment currently 

is $91, as we announced in the Federal 

Register on October 27, 2016 (81 FR 

74854). 

The Act requires us each year to set 

the assessment percentage rate at the 

lesser of 6.3 percent or the percentage 

rate necessary to achieve full recovery of 

the costs we incur to determine and pay 

representatives’ fees. (Sections 

206(d)(2)(B)(ii) and 1631(d)(2)(C)(ii)(II) 

of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 406(d)(2)(B)(ii) and 

1383(d)(2)(C)(ii)(II).) 

Based on the best available data, we 

have determined that the current rate of 

6.3 percent will continue for 2017. We 

will continue to review our costs for 

these services on a yearly basis. 

Michelle King, 

Acting Deputy Commissioner for Budget, 

Finance, Quality, and Management.
