Chapter 16 - How to Report

 

If at any time after you have filed your application you find that one of the conditions previously described in this booklet applies to you, immediately notify the RRB in writing. The notice should be sent to the RRB field office at the address shown on the receipt for your application. However, if you wish, you may also visit that office or call an RRB representative toll-free at (877) 772-5772.
 
When you report an event, be sure to include all of the following:

  • your railroad retirement claim number, which is shown at the top of your application receipt,
  • your name (or the employee's name if you are reporting an event for the employee),
  • a clear explanation of what event you are reporting,
  • the exact date (month, day, year) that the event occurred, and
  • your address and daytime telephone number.

In addition, to report work and earnings, it is important that you also furnish all of the following:

  • the kind of work, including self-employment, that you are doing,
  • the name and address of your employer,
  • how much you expect to earn each month,
  • the period of time you expect to work,
  • how many hours per week you work, and
  • any impairment-related work expenses.
