[Nfbf-l] Social Security Announces One-Time Payment

[Sherri]

Please pass this along.



SOCIAL SECURITY

Dear Colleague:

On February 17, 2009, President Obama signed the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009. This new legislation provides a one-time payment
of $250

to Social Security and Supplemental Security Income beneficiaries.

Over 60 million beneficiaries will receive a one-time payment. We expect all
payments to be delivered by late May 2009. To assist us in issuing these
payments

as quickly as possible, beneficiaries should not contact Social Security
unless they do not receive their payment by June 4th. As we move to
implement

the new legislation, we will continue to provide updates to keep you
informed of our efforts in this area.

You can learn more about these one-time payments at

www.socialsecurity.gov.

We ask that you share information about these efforts with members,
colleagues and any parties who would find them of interest.

I look forward to the opportunity to discuss this important legislation with
you.

Sincerely,

Cheri Arnott

Associate Commissioner

for External Affairs
