SSA will not send "no-match" letters to employers for 2007

SSA will, again, not send “no-match” letters to employers for 2007. No letters were sent for 2006 (see CCH Payroll Management Guide Report Letter 1248/2017, dated November 30, 2007.) While US District Court Judge Charles Breyer of the Northern District of California issued a preliminary injunction in October 2007 stopping the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from implementing its ”no-match” regulation, which included mailing or otherwise sending to employers SSA “no-match” letters that have DHS inserts explaining the regulation, the injunction never precluded the SSA from sending out its traditional “no-match” letters to employers, which help to improve the accuracy of its wage reporting. However, the SSA has decided that just like 2006, it will not send “no-match” letters to employers for 2007, said Dorothy Clark, spokesperson for the agency, in a May 7, 2008, interview with CCH.
