June 05, 2015
Office Affiliation: The Office of Audit
Audit Report Number: A-01-14-24114
We selected for review a sample of 1,532 beneficiaries from a file of 8.9 million beneficiaries who were receiving disability payments in October 2003.
We originally reviewed these 1,532 cases for an April 2006 audit.
Our objective of this report is to study 1,532 beneficiaries who received disability benefits in October 2003 to determine the amount of overpayments in the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) disability programs between October 2003 and February 2014 (just over a 10-year period).
