Public Law 111–5 provided funding to process disability and retirement work, to replace the National Computer Center, and
to administer $250 economic recovery payments to eligible Social Security and Supplemental Security Income beneficiaries.
The funds for administering the $250 economic recovery payments were obligated by the end of the first quarter of 2011, as
payments ended on December 31, 2010. All obligations since 2012 are for the replacement of the National Computer Center. SSA
received a Presidential Waiver on December 28, 2012, allowing the agency to retain and continue to obligate funds appropriated
for expenses of the replacement of the National Computer Center.

LIMITATION ON ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
For necessary expenses, including the hire and purchase of passenger motor vehicles and charging or fueling infrastructure
for zero emission passenger motor vehicles, and not to exceed $20,000 for official reception and representation expenses,
not more than $14,632,300,000 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 in such section: Provided, That not less than $2,750,000 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 2023 not needed for fiscal year
2023 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 the Commissioner of Social Security shall notify the Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives and
the Senate prior to making unobligated balances available under the authority in the previous proviso: 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 5 U.S.C. 7131, 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, $1,799,000,000, to remain available through March 31, 2024, is for the costs
associated with continuing disability reviews under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act, including work-related continuing
disability reviews to determine whether earnings derived from services demonstrate an individual's ability to engage in substantial
gainful activity, for the cost associated with conducting redeterminations of eligibility under title XVI of the Social Security
Act, for the cost of co-operative disability investigation units, and for the cost associated with the prosecution of fraud
in the programs and operations of the Social Security Administration by Special Assistant United States Attorneys: Provided, That, of such amount, $288,000,000 is provided to meet the terms of a concurrent resolution on the budget, and $1,511,000,000
is additional new budget authority specified for purposes of a concurrent resolution on the budget: Provided further, That, of the additional new budget authority described in the preceding proviso, up to $15,100,000 may be transferred to
the "Office of Inspector General", Social Security Administration, for the cost of jointly operated co-operative disability
investigation units: Provided further, That such transfer authority is in addition to any other transfer authority provided by law: Provided further, That the Commissioner shall provide to the Congress (at the conclusion of the fiscal year) a report on the obligation and
expenditure of these funds, similar to the reports that were required by section 103(d)(2) of Public Law 104–121 for fiscal
years 1996 through 2002: Provided further, That none of the funds described in this paragraph shall be available for transfer
or reprogramming except as specified in this paragraph.
In addition, $140,000,000 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: Provided, That to the extent that the amounts collected pursuant to such sections in fiscal year 2023 exceed $140,000,000, the amounts
shall be available in fiscal year 2024 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.
Note.—A full-year 2022 appropriation for this account was not enacted at the time the Budget was prepared; therefore, the
Budget assumes this account is operating under the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2022 (Division A of Public Law 117–43, as
amended). The amounts included for 2022 reflect the annualized level provided by the continuing resolution.

The Limitation on Administrative Expenses (LAE) account provides resources for Social Security to administer the Old-Age and
Survivors Insurance (OASI) and Disability Insurance (SSDI) programs, the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program, the Special
Benefits for Certain World War II Veterans program, and certain health insurance functions for the aged and disabled. Public
Law 114–10 prohibits displaying, coding, or embedding Social Security numbers on a beneficiary's Medicare card. In order to
fund implementation costs to comply with this provision, SSA received $98 million funded incrementally from FY 2015 to FY
2018. The account also includes funding to improve service delivery and advance equity in SSA programs.
The proposed $1.8 billion in discretionary funding in 2023 for dedicated program integrity activities, including a $1.5 billion
allocation adjustment, allows SSA to conduct continuing disability reviews and SSI redeterminations to confirm that participants
remain eligible to receive benefits, and it supports anti-fraud cooperative disability investigation (CDI) units and Special
Assistant U.S. Fraud Attorneys. To continue to support these important anti-fraud activities, the appropriations language
provides for SSA to transfer up to $15.1 million to the SSA Office of the Inspector General to fund CDI unit costs.
