Form SSA-671. Railroad Employment Questionnaire

Form SSA-671, the Railroad Employment Questionnaire, is used to collect information about an individual's employment history in the railroad industry. The main purpose is to gather details about a person's work history in the railroad sector, which is crucial for calculating their Social Security benefits accurately if they have worked in both railroad and non-railroad employment.

For example, if someone has worked in both railroad and non-railroad jobs, they would use this form to provide essential employment information. The benefits include ensuring that individuals who have had a mixed employment history receive the correct Social Security benefits.

The parties involved are individuals who have worked in the railroad industry and the SSA. The form typically consists of sections where the individual provides details about their railroad employment, including job titles, dates of employment, and the name of the railroad employer.
