This U.S. Department of Government Efficiency has been able to mark as deceased approximately 3.2 million number holders. As a matter of fact, they were all listed as age 120+.<\/p>\n<h2>DOGE fights fraud to protect Social Security payments<\/h2>\n<p>Another important improvement <strong>DOGE<\/strong> has carried out has to do with <strong>Social Security direct deposits<\/strong>. In order to protect Americans from fraud, SSA will no longer accept changes to bank account information over the phone.<\/p>\n<p>However, it will be possible to correct the record about <strong>Social Security direct deposit<\/strong> by using a 2-factor authentication with SSA. That is through your &#8220;my Social Security&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>But you will also be able to change your bank account information if you visit your local <strong>Social Security office<\/strong>. In this way, you can prove your identity and fraud will be avoided. Bear in mind that 40% of this type of fraud is done over the phone claimed the Department of Government Efficiency.<\/p>\n<h2>DOGE &amp; Social Security will expedite direct deposit changes<\/h2>\n<p>Apart from offering Americans receiving RSDI benefits stronger identity verification procedures, <strong>DOGE<\/strong> will expedite the processing of all direct deposit change requests.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you make this change in person or online, it will only take 1 business day. Previously, it was held for 1 month. Besides, <strong>DOGE<\/strong> has detected a few things in their software audit.<\/p>\n<p>For example, there are 4 redundant survey tools which range from $118k-$1.8M\/year. Social Security is also paying for 10,000 UI Path licenses but it is only using 5,011. Or it is paying for 20,600 Tableau licenses but it is only using 11,560.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DOGE, which is the Department of Government Efficiency, has recently made some important changes so as to make the Social Security Administration (SSA) more productive.
