It’s also possible that a change in your personal information could trigger a pause in payments. “They talk about irregularities being detected,” says Martha Shedden, co-founder and president of the National Association of Registered Social Security Analysts. Perhaps you moved and forgot to update your address, or your Social Security number was flagged for identity theft or fraud. In those cases, payments may not resume until you have provided necessary documentation or verified your identity.
