**(c) Reductions and deductions under other provisions** Reduction of benefits under this section shall be made after any reduction under subsection (a) of [section 403 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section403&num=0&edition=prelim), but before deductions under such section and under section 422(b) 11 See References in Text note below. of this title.

**(e) Conditions for payment** If it appears to the Commissioner of Social Security that an individual may be eligible for periodic benefits under a law or plan which would give rise to reduction under this section, the Commissioner may require, as a condition of certification for payment of any benefits under [section 423 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section423&num=0&edition=prelim) to any individual for any month and of any benefits under [section 402 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section402&num=0&edition=prelim) for such month based on such individual’s wages and self-employment income, that such individual certify (i) whether he has filed or intends to file any claim for such periodic benefits, and (ii) if he has so filed, whether there has been a decision on such claim. The Commissioner of Social Security may, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, rely upon such a certification by such individual that he has not filed and does not intend to file such a claim, or that he has so filed and no final decision thereon has been made, in certifying benefits for payment pursuant to [section 405(i) of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section405/i&num=0&edition=prelim).
**(f) Redetermination of reduction**
(1) In the second calendar year after the year in which reduction under this section in the total of an individual’s benefits under [section 423 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section423&num=0&edition=prelim) and any benefits under [section 402 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section402&num=0&edition=prelim) based on his wages and self-employment income was first required (in a continuous period of months), and in each third year thereafter, the Commissioner of Social Security shall redetermine the amount of such benefits which are still subject to reduction under this section; but such redetermination shall not result in any decrease in the total amount of benefits payable under this subchapter on the basis of such individual’s wages and self-employment income. Such redetermined benefit shall be determined as of, and shall become effective with, the January following the year in which such redetermination was made.
(2) In making the redetermination required by paragraph (1), the individual’s average current earnings (as defined in subsection (a)) shall be deemed to be the product of—
(A) his average current earnings as initially determined under subsection (a); and
(B) the ratio of (i) the national average wage index (as defined in [section 409(k)(1) of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section409/k/1&num=0&edition=prelim)) for the calendar year before the year in which such redetermination is made to (ii) the national average wage index (as so defined) for the calendar year before the year in which the reduction was first computed (but not counting any reduction made in benefits for a previous period of disability).
Any amount determined under this paragraph which is not a multiple of $1 shall be reduced to the next lower multiple of $1.
**(g) Proportionate reduction; application of excess** Whenever a reduction in the total of benefits for any month based on an individual’s wages and self-employment income is made under this section, each benefit, except the disability insurance benefit, shall first be proportionately decreased, and any excess of such reduction over the sum of all such benefits other than the disability insurance benefits shall then be applied to such disability insurance benefit.
**(h) Furnishing of information**
(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the head of any Federal agency shall provide such information within its possession as the Commissioner of Social Security may require for purposes of making a timely determination of the amount of the reduction, if any, required by this section in benefits payable under this subchapter, or verifying other information necessary in carrying out the provisions of this section.
(2) The Commissioner of Social Security is authorized to enter into agreements with States, political subdivisions, and other organizations that administer a law or plan subject to the provisions of this section, in order to obtain such information as the Commissioner may require to carry out the provisions of this section.
