Form SSA-1372-BK. Advanced Notice of Termination of Child's Benefits

Form SSA-1372-BK serves as an Advanced Notice of Termination of Child's Benefits. The main purpose of this form is to provide advanced notice to individuals who are receiving child's benefits, informing them of the impending termination of those benefits.

For example, if a child is receiving Social Security benefits based on a parent's work record, and they are approaching the age limit for eligibility, this form would be used to notify them in advance that their benefits will cease. The form's purpose is to ensure that individuals have time to prepare for the termination of these benefits and make any necessary adjustments.

The parties involved are the individuals receiving child's benefits and the Social Security Administration. The form is structured with sections for the beneficiary's information, details about the termination, and an explanation of appeal rights. It's important for individuals to carefully review this notice and take appropriate action if needed.
