How to Complete the SSA-1199-SP Form

To fill out the SSA-1199-SP, Direct Deposit Sign Up Form in Spanish, follow these detailed steps:

1. Start by filling out the "Apartado 1" on the form. In this section, you need to enter your full name, complete address, telephone number, and your Social Security Pension number if you have it (this is optional). Make sure to use block letters for clarity.
2. In the same section ("Apartado 1"), indicate whether this deposit is for your own account or a joint account by checking the appropriate box. If it is a joint account, and if both holders are beneficiaries, each must sign the form certifying they understand the conditions. Also, enter the type and amount of the allocation if it's necessary.
3. At the bottom of "Apartado 1," provide your certification. This involves reading the information on the back of the form and signing your name to authorize the Social Security Administration to send your payments to the specified financial institution, to be deposited into the designated account. Include the date of your signature here as well.
4. If you are signing as a representative of the beneficiary, indicate this by checking "Yes" or "No" in the appropriate box, and provide the beneficiary's date of birth.
5. Next, move to "Apartado 2" where you need to do nothing since it simply lists the mailing address for sending the completed form. This section contains the name of the governmental agency (Social Security Administration) and the address of the Federal Benefits Unit at the U.S. Embassy in Madrid, where the completed form must be sent.
6. "Apartado 3" is to be completed by your bank. It will include the bank's name, phone number, and address, along with the type of account (checking or savings). Your bank will need to provide the international bank account number (IBAN) and the bank or branch's identification code (SWIFT/BIC).
7. Have the bank official print their name and sign the form, confirming that the account exists and is eligible to receive direct deposits.
8. After all sections are completed, send the entire form to the address listed in "Apartado 2" for processing. Remember, this form should be sent to the Federal Benefits Unit, U.S. Embassy, Calle de Serrano 75, 28006 Madrid, Spain.

Ensure all the information is accurate and legible to prevent any delays in processing your direct deposit request.
