On December 19, 2023, the Office of Special Counsel referred a whistleblower disclosure in which a Social Security Administration (SSA) employee alleged that, “SSA Claims Examiners are not informing claimants about the potential detriment of electing to apply for spousal benefits prior to full retirement age.” The Agency referred that allegation to the Office of the Inspector General for review.
