Letters were sent by PFD informing applicants that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has notified PFD that either the Social Security Number (SSN) or the name provided on an application does not match IRS records. If the discrepancy is not corrected, Federal Law requires that PFD withhold 28% of the dividend and send it to the IRS.

• Correct any discrepancies to the name or Social Security Number on the letter from PFD and return it as soon as possible.
• If the information is correct, contact your nearest Social Security Administration office.
• If PFD does not receive the corrected information by June 26, 2009, you will be required to make any corrections through the Social Security Administration Office by requesting a SSA-7028 be sent to the PFD Division.
• Allow sufficient time for your request to be processed, as withholding cannot be avoided if your request is received within 30 days of your scheduled payment date.
