Learn more about your options if you have received notice of an overpayment if you don’t agree, can’t pay it back, or need to set up a payment plan. If you are a client of A Path to Success, send in copies of paperwork from SSA and we will review them with you before you submit to SSA.

The public version of Social Security’s Program Operations Manual, the POMS is regularly used by SSA employees in the running of their programs. The POMS contains highly technical terms and instructions that may be unfamiliar. At A Path to Success, we have years of experience in using the information contained in the POMS system to help our clients.
