Limitation on Administrative Expenses
For necessary expenses, including the hire of two passenger motor
vehicles, and not to exceed $15,000 for official reception and
representation expenses, not more than $8,410,000,000 may be expended,
as authorized by section 201(g)(1) of the Social Security Act, from any
one or all of the trust funds referred to therein: Provided, That not
less than $1,800,000 shall be for the Social Security Advisory Board:
Provided further, That unobligated balances of funds provided under this
paragraph at the end of fiscal year 2004 not needed for fiscal year 2004
shall remain available until expended to invest in the Social Security
Administration information technology and telecommunications hardware
and software infrastructure, including related equipment and non-payroll
administrative expenses associated solely with this information
technology and telecommunications infrastructure: Provided further, That
reimbursement to the trust funds under this heading for expenditures for
official time for employees of the Social Security Administration
pursuant to section 7131 of title 5, United States Code, and for
facilities or support services for labor organizations pursuant to
policies, regulations, or procedures referred to in section 7135(b) of
such title shall be made by the Secretary of the Treasury, with
interest, from amounts in the general fund not otherwise appropriated,
as soon as possible after such expenditures are made.
From funds provided under the first paragraph, not less than
$1,446,000,000 shall be available for processing continuing disability
reviews, non-disability redeterminations of eligibility in the
Supplemental Security Income program, and overpayment workloads, under
titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act.
In addition, $120,000,000 to be derived from administration fees in
excess of $5.00 per supplementary payment collected pursuant to section
1616(d) of the Social Security Act or section 212(b)(3) of Public Law
93-66, which shall remain available until expended. To the extent that
the amounts collected pursuant to such section 1616(d) or 212(b)(3) in
fiscal year 2004 exceed $120,000,000, the amounts shall be available in
fiscal year 2005 only to the extent provided in advance in
appropriations Acts.
From funds previously appropriated for this purpose, any unobligated
balances at the end of fiscal year 2003 shall be available to continue
Federal-State partnerships which will evaluate means to promote Medicare
buy-in programs targeted to elderly and disabled individuals under
titles XVIII and XIX of the Social Security Act.
Note.--A regular 2003 appropriation for this account had not been
enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is
operating under a continuing resolution (P.L. 107-229, as amended). The
amounts included for 2003 in this budget reflect the Administration's
2003 policy proposals.

As directed by Section 104 of P.L. 103-296, the Social Security
Independence and Program Improvements Act of 1994, the Commissioner of
Social Security shall prepare an annual budget for the Social Security
Administration (SSA), which shall be submitted by the President to the
Congress without revision, together with the President's annual budget
for SSA.
The Commissioner developed a multi-year Service Delivery Budget
through FY 2008 to provide a context for making decisions on needed
improvements in service delivery and fiscal stewardship, and the
requisite staffing to accomplish both. The Commissioner's multi-year
budget includes $9,018 million for total administrative discretionary
resources in FY 2004. This represents $8,920 million for SSA
administrative expenses and $98 million for the Office of the Inspector
General.
