3See 20 CFR 402.170, 402.175; Program 

Operations Manual System (POMS) GN 03311.005. 

for nonprogram information requests. 

We reserve the right to review and 

update the published standard fees as 

necessary, but no less than every two 

years, to ensure the agency recovers the 

full cost of providing nonprogramrelated services. Standard fees provide 

consistency and ensure we recover the 

full cost of supplying information when 

we receive a request for a purpose not 

directly related to the administration of 

a program under the Social Security Act 

(Act). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

1106 of the Act and the Privacy Act 2

authorize the Commissioner of Social 

Security to promulgate regulations 

regarding agency records and 

information and to charge fees for 

providing information and related 

services. Our regulations and operating 

instructions identify when we will 

charge fees for information.3 Whenever 

we determine a request for information 

is for any purpose not directly related to 

the administration of the Social Security 

programs, we require the requester to 

pay the full cost of providing the 

information. 

New Information: Based on the most 

recent cost analysis, we determined the 

new standard fee for detailed yearly 

Social Security earnings information is 

$136 for each request. We will certify 

the detailed earnings information for an 

additional $56. Note: Certification is 

usually not necessary. We based this 

updated standard fee on our most recent 

cost calculations for supplying this 

information and the standard fee 

methodology previously published in 

the Federal Register. A requestor can 

obtain certified and non-certified 

detailed yearly Social Security earnings 

information by completing the Form 

SSA–7050 (Request for Social Security 

Earnings Information). A requestor can 

continue to obtain non-certified, yearly 

earnings totals (Form SSA–7004, 

Request for a Social Security Statement) 

through our free online service 

mySocialSecurity, http://

socialsecurity.gov/myaccount/, a 

personal online account for Social 

Security information and services. 

Online Social Security Statements 

display uncertified yearly earnings, free 

of charge, and do not show any 

employer information. Certified yearly 

Social Security earnings totals cost $56, 

available by completing Form SSA– 

7050. 

We will continue to evaluate all 

standard fees at least every two years to 

ensure we capture the full costs 

associated with providing information 

for nonprogram-related purposes. We 

will require nonrefundable advance 

payment of the standard fee by check, 

money order, or credit card. We will not 

accept cash. If we revise any of the 

standard fees, we will publish another 

notice in the Federal Register. For other 

nonprogram-related requests for 

information not addressed here or 

within the current schedule of 

standardized administrative fees, we 

will continue to charge fees calculated 

on a case-by-case basis to recover our 

full cost of supplying the information.
