Denial of Benefits to Fugitive Felons

The issues of the denial of Old Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) and Disability Insurance (DI) benefits to fugitive felons and the provision of the current address and social security number (SSN) of OASI and DI beneficiaries who are fugitive felons to law enforcement agencies are addressed. Upon review, it was determined that: the Social Security Administration (SSA) can not deny OASI and DI benefits to those who are entitled to receive them which includes fugitive felons; and that the SSA will only disclose information it collects about individuals in cases involving indictment or conviction of violent crimes, such as murder or kidnapping.
