About the Team
The Representative Payee Program team conducts reviews of Representative Payees on behalf of the Social Security Administration. A representative payee handles the Social Security and/or SSI payments of Social Security beneficiaries who are incapable of managing their own cash benefits. Check out this short video ( to learn more about the Representative Payee Program.
The position requires government clearance (suitability) before being able to perform the duties of the job or view any beneficiary information. The clearance process typically takes between 3 – 6 weeks. As a result, newly hired reviewers will begin after clearance is received. Current DRTx staff that transfer to the team will maintain full time status.
Our team does not provide direct client services and is an excellent position for those that would like the opportunity to impact the lives of beneficiaries with disabilities by assuring that those with control of their finances are providing for their best basic care needs.
