Welcome, fellow warriors and supporters of our veterans. Today, we delve into a crucial aspect of veterans’ benefits: Federal Tax Information (FTI) Match. As an organization deeply committed to assisting veterans in navigating the complexities of disability compensation, Warrior Allegiance aims to shed light on this vital process.
What is FTI Match?
FTI Match involves the exchange of income records between the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and various government agencies. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) provides unearned income records, including retirement income, while the Social Security Administration (SSA) supplies earned income records. These records form the basis of FTI, which encompasses any return or return information received from the IRS or secondary sources like SSA.
How Does Warrior Allegiance Utilize FTI?
At Warrior Allegiance, we employ evidence-based, fact-finding methods to assist veterans in their disability compensation claims. FTI serves as a crucial tool in this process, aiding us in upfront verification and income verification matches (IVMs). By comparing income information provided by applicants with IRS and SSA records, we ensure accurate assessment and fair distribution of benefits.
Upfront Verification
Upfront verification allows us to verify earned and unearned income from IRS and SSA sources against the information provided by veterans seeking benefits. This process is instrumental in preventing discrepancies and ensuring that veterans receive the support they rightfully deserve.
The Importance of Income Verification Matches (IVMs)
IVMs play a vital role in confirming income reported to VA by pension and Parents’ Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) recipients. This match also includes earned income of veterans receiving benefits at the 100-percent rate due to individual unemployability. By conducting IVMs, Warrior Allegiance ensures transparency and accountability in the benefits distribution process.
Security Measures for FTI
At Warrior Allegiance, safeguarding veterans’ information is paramount. We adhere to stringent security measures outlined by the IRS to protect FTI received from both IRS and SSA sources. By maintaining robust programs and protocols, we uphold the privacy and confidentiality of veterans’ tax information.
