                      TITLE 20--EMPLOYEES' BENEFITS
 
                  CHAPTER II--RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
 
PART 235_PAYMENT OF SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS BY THE RAILROAD RETIREMENT 
 
Sec.  235.4  How the Board pays social security benefits.

    (a) When an individual described in Sec.  235.3 of this part is 
determined by the Social Security Administration to be entitled to 
social security benefits, the Social Security Administration certifies 
such benefits to the Board for payment by the Board. Once social 
security entitlement is certified to the Board, the Board then certifies 
the amount of the social security benefit to the Department of the 
Treasury for payment and makes any necessary adjustments in the 
individual's railroad retirement benefit.
    (b) The Board has no authority with respect to the adjudication of 
the benefit to be paid under the Social Security Act. Entitlement to and 
the computation of such benefits is a matter solely within the 
jurisdiction of the Social Security Administration.
