Original Note:
Starting in 2015, the SSA OIG has reported on folks too old to be paid SS benefits existing in the SSA database. This report from 2023 summarizes the issue, why this isn't a source of fraud, and why SSA isn't going to retroactively fix it because of costs and risks. https://oig.ssa.gov/assets/uploads/a-06-21-51022.pdf
