HR 3659 United States House · 119th Congress

Valid Benefits Act

HR 3659, the Valid Benefits Act, requires federal agencies to verify the eligibility of individuals aged 105 or older for federal benefits twice a year, starting in 2025. It directly affects seniors receiving benefits like Social Security or veterans' payments who reach this age. The bill mandates agencies to implement verification processes but does not change benefit amounts or create new programs. It specifies that agencies may issue regulations to carry out this requirement, with all verification applying to benefits paid on or after December 31, 2025.
