A representative payee is a person or organization authorized by the Social Security Administration (SSA) to cash and manage certain benefits checks -- Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) -- for a person deemed unable to do so.
If you are concerned that someone you know becomes incapable of managing or directing the management of his or her benefits, please call us at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) to request an appointment to discuss your concerns. Generally, we look for family or friends to serve as representative payees. When friends or family are not able to serve as payees, Social Security looks for qualified organizations to be representative payees. If you are a representative payee, you can complete the Representative Payee Accounting Report online.
