Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 242 / Tuesday, December 18, 2018 / Notices
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.1
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.2 The
maximum dollar limit for the
assessment currently is $95, as we
announced in the Federal Register on
October 24, 2018 (83 FR 53702).
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.3
Based on the best available data, we
have determined that the current rate of
6.3 percent will continue for 2019. We
will continue to review our costs for
these services on a yearly basis.
Dated: December 11, 2018.

Deputy Commissioner for Budget, Finance,
and Management.
