The Office of Investigations (OI) focuses its efforts on
identifying, investigating, and presenting Railroad Retirement Board
(RRB) benefit fraud cases for prosecution. OI conducts
investigations throughout the United States relating to:
- Fraudulent receipt of RRB disability, unemployment, sickness
and retirement/survivor benefits;
- Railroad Medicare fraud;
- Conspiracy to defraud RRB benefit programs;
- False reporting by railroad employers; and
- Criminal violations by agency personnel.
Investigative efforts can result in criminal convictions, civil
judgments and penalties, administrative recovery of program benefit
funds, and/or administrative sanctions.
If you believe someone is illegally receiving RRB benefits or you
wish to report or discuss any suspected misconduct relating to the
RRB, its programs, or employees, please contact the office of
