Title: Prevention of Payments to Deceased Persons 
Abstract: We are implementing the requirement in the 2008 Farm Bill to prevent the issuance of program payments to deceased individuals. Currently, the regulation in 7 CFR part 707 covers the manner in which program payments may be issued in cases when a producer dies and is owed payments. However, the new provision is to identify only those specific instances in which those payments can be issued. The new provision will also implement the requirement that FSA reconcile program participant records with records from the Social Security Administration on a regular basis in an effort to prevent improper or erroneous payments to individuals after the date of death.
