Read time: 6 minutes

The amount you received is based on information you provide about:

  • Yourself
  • Any dependents you have (spouse and children you support)
  • Your income
  • Your work history

Please make sure you provide accurate information because:

  • We will mail letters and forms to the address you provide.
  • We may verify your information with other federal, state, and local government agencies.

If you provide inaccurate information, your claim may be denied. If you did it on purpose to receive benefits you don’t deserve, you are committing fraud and will be penalized.
