Legislative proposal, not subject to PAYGO Legislative proposal, subject to PAYGO Please see the narrative in the Limitation on Administrative Expenses account for a description of the Federal Wage Reporting, workers' compensation, and WEP/GPO proposals reflected here. The President's Budget includes a proposal to extend the temporary 2.0-percentage point reduction in the employee Social Security payroll tax rate to apply to the first $110,100 of taxable wages. A similar reduction would apply to the employee portion of Tier 1 Railroad Retirement payroll taxes. For self-employed individuals, the Social Security payroll tax rate would be reduced from 12.4 percent to 10.4 percent of the first $110,100 of net taxable self-employment income received. The Social Security Trust Fund would be held harmless and receive transfers from the General Fund of the Treasury equal to any reduction in payroll taxes attributable to these reductions in payroll tax rates.Program and Financing(in millions of dollars)Identification code 28–0404–4–1–6512011 actual2012 est.2013 est.

Legislative proposal, subject to PAYGO The Budget includes a proposal to allow refugees and asylees to receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits an additional two years, in 2013 and 2014, for a total maximum of nine years of eligibility. The time-limited SSI eligibility period was temporarily extended to 9 years for FY 2009–2011. However, effective October 2011, the SSI eligibility period for refugees and other humanitarian immigrants reverted to 7 years. For many participants, extended SSI eligibility will result in extended Medicaid eligibility and reduced SNAP benefit receipt.The Budget also includes a proposal to conform the treatment of state and local government Earned Income Tax Credits (EITC) and Child Tax Credits (CTC) to be consistent with the treatment of the federal EITC and CTC for purposes of determining eligibility for SSI. Currently, the federal EITC and CTC credits are excluded from the SSI income and resource tests. However, state and local versions of these credits are not excluded, resulting in the reduction or loss of SSI benefits for those receiving the credits.Program and Financing(in millions of dollars)Identification code 28–0406–4–1–6092011 actual2012 est.2013 est.

Amounts included in the adjusted baseline Legislative proposal, not subject to PAYGO The President's Budget includes a proposal to extend the temporary 2.0-percentage point reduction in the employee payroll tax rate to apply to the first $110,100 of taxable wages. A similar reduction would apply to the employee portion of the Tier 1 Railroad Retirement payroll taxes. For self-employed individuals, the Social Security payroll tax rate would be reduced from 12.4 percent to 10.4 percent of the first $110,100 of net taxable self-employment income received. The Social Security Trust Fund would be held harmless, and receive transfers from the General Fund of the Treasury equal to any reduction in payroll taxes attributable to these reductions in payroll tax rates.The Budget includes a proposal to terminate benefits for a stepchild in the same month as benefits are terminated for a parent upon the divorce of the parent. This change would correct a drafting error in the original legislation in order to conform the treatment of stepchild benefits to those of the parent's benefits.

Legislative proposal, not subject to PAYGO The Budget includes a legislative proposal to re-authorize Section 234 disability demonstration authority for five years. The authority would fund various projects, including the pilot of the Work Incentives Simplification Proposal, which would eliminate work activity as a basis for determining disability cessation. We intend to work with Congress on a fully offset package.The Budget also includes a proposal to terminate benefits for a stepchild in the same month as benefits are terminated for a parent upon the divorce of the parent. This change would correct a drafting error in the original legislation in order to conform the treatment of stepchild benefits to those of the parent's benefits.

To the extent that the amounts collected pursuant to such sections in fiscal year 2012 2013 exceed $161,000,000 $170,000,000, the amounts shall be available in fiscal year 2013 2014 only to the extent provided in advance in appropriations Acts.In addition, up to $1,000,000 to be derived from fees collected pursuant to section 303(c) of the Social Security Protection Act, which shall remain available until expended.(Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2012.)For an additional amount for continuing disability reviews under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act and for the cost associated with conducting redeterminations of eligibility under title XVI of the Social Security Act, not more than $483,484,000 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 such amount is additional new budget authority specified for purposes of subsection 251(b)(2)(B) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, and shall be treated for such purposes as being included under this heading in the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, or any continuing appropriation Act, for fiscal year 2012. (Disaster Relief Appropriations Act, 2012.) The Limitation on Administrative Expenses account provides resources for Social Security to administer the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance and Disability Insurance programs, the Supplemental Security Income program, the Special Benefits for Certain World War II Veterans program, and certain health insurance functions for the aged and disabled. The request for additional funding for program integrity activities builds on SSA's success in reducing program costs by ensuring that only individuals still eligible for benefits continue to receive them. The agency uses Continuing Disability Reviews (CDRs) to determine whether an individual continues to qualify for Disability Insurance or the Supplemental Security Income program. For every $1 spent by SSA on a disability review, $9 is saved in erroneous payments. Redeterminations focus on an individuals eligibility for the means-tested Supplemental Security Income program. For every $1 spent by SSA on a redetermination, $6 is saved in erroneous payments.The Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act (BBEDCA) of 1985, as amended by the Budget Control Act of 2011, enacted adjustments to the discretionary spending limits in the Act for 2012 through 2021 for administrative program integrity activities at both the Social Security Administration and at the Department of Health and Human Services. This Budget assumes that in each year both the base level and the cap adjustments are funded at the maximum levels allowed by section 251(b)(2)(B) of BBEDCA. For the Social Security Administration, BBEDCA authorized a $751 million cap adjustment for 2013. To ensure full funding of the cost increases, this cap adjustment is permissible only if the base level for CDRs and Redeterminations is funded at $273 million. With these funds, SSA can conduct at least 592,000 CDRs and at least 2.6 million Supplemental Security Income redeterminations of eligibility in 2013.

Legislative proposal, not subject to PAYGO The Budget includes four proposals that will strengthen the integrity and administration of several programs:1. The Administration is including a request to restructure the Federal Wage Reporting process by moving from annual to quarterly wage reporting. This proposal will enhance tax administration and improve program integrity for a range of programs. 2. In addition, the Budget includes proposals to develop mechanisms for timely and accurate collection of workers' compensation and WEP/GPO data for use in payment calculations. These mechanisms will improve payment accuracy. See additional discussion in the Budget Process chapter in the Analytical Perspectives volume.3. The Budget also includes a proposal to amend the Internal Revenue Code to lower the employer electronic wage reporting threshold from 250 to 100 employees. In 2011, the vast majority of employers this size reported electronically.4. Finally, the Budget contains a proposal to allow SSA to certify Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) divorced spouse benefits payments electronically. As a result, all RRB benefits would be certified electronically thus saving administrative dollars.Program and Financing(in millions of dollars)Identification code 28–8704–2–7–6512011 actual2012 est.2013 est.
