FORM SSA1945 STILL REQUIRED FROM EMPLOYERS

Form SSA1945, Statement Concerning Your Employment in a Job Not Covered Under Social Security, is required to be completed for every new employee when they are hired. This still holds true even though the Social Security Fairness Act enacted in early 2025 ended the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO). A recent news item on the OP&F website provides more detail on the Social Security Fairness Act, the WEP and GPO.

With the Social Security Fairness Act, form SSA1945 has been updated by Social Security and there is a link to it on OP&F's website under Employer/Forms. The form is provided by Social Security and is not an OP&F form, though it needs to be sent to OP&F when completed. Please contact OP&F Customer Service if you have any questions about this form.
