Social Security Retirement Insurance federal funding in Montana

The 96.002 and Montana filters together

CFDA 96.002 is Social Security Retirement Insurance. Montana (MT) is the place-of-performance state. Their intersection is $11,638,417,992 and 1,972 records. A 96.002 award tagged to Idaho, Wyoming, or North Dakota is not here. A Montana award under disability insurance (96.001) or survivors insurance (96.004) is a different CFDA. This page does not add those programs to the $11,638,417,992.

1,972 awards against $11,638,417,992 yields a mean of about $5,901,835 per record. That mean is arithmetic on packet facts, not a typical monthly benefit and not a typical retiree’s annual check. Large assistance vehicles and modifications can dominate dollars while the row count stays at 1,972. This packet does not name the recipients of the 1,972 rows.

Helena did not earn the sum by sitting on MT. Matching 96.002 to Montana is not a finding about in-migration. The overlay Social Security Retirement Insurance in Montana is the live table.

Retirement insurance as a catalog title, not a COLA brief

The official catalog title is SOCIAL SECURITY RETIREMENT INSURANCE. SpendingVault does not grade Montana’s Social Security retirement insurance system, its backlog, or its policy model. $11,638,417,992 is an obligation sum, not a policy verdict. CFDA 96.002 is the national hub without the Montana filter. This packet has no national Social Security retirement insurance total, so none is quoted.

SSA statistical supplements, Trust Fund ratios, and COLA announcements are other series. They are not the 1,972 USAspending.gov awards. Mixing a census from those files with this join would invent a per-person dollar figure the packet does not support. Mountain-retiree and reservation-adjacent folklore is ordinary speech, not a packet field.

Montana’s statewide book besides 96.002

Montana federal spending covers every CFDA coded to the state. Montana programs is the catalog directory. $11,638,417,992 is one cell. Quoting it as Montana’s entire federal book would drop disability insurance (96.001) or survivors insurance (96.004) and every other line that also hits the state.

Place-of-performance Montana on a Social Security retirement insurance vehicle is often an agency or payment-center address. It is not a map of where people live. This packet has no county split of the $11,638,417,992 and no congressional-district cut. Billings did not receive $11,638,417,992 as a named metro.

Commitments versus checks already mailed in Montana

An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. $11,638,417,992 is the commitment figure. This page does not convert the 1,972 awards into cash flows, count of retirees counts, or Treasury deposits. Keep the citation on USAspending.gov CFDA aggregates by place of performance state.

Helena budget documents and state-level appropriations answer other questions. They are not the source of this cell. If a chart mixes General Fund activity with CFDA 96.002, the chart has left the federal award series. Billings-versus-Missoula folklore is not a metro split. No reservation-versus-county payment cut is in the facts.

How to cite the 96.002–Montana pair

Cite: Social Security Retirement Insurance (CFDA 96.002) obligated $11,638,417,992 on 1,972 awards coded to Montana, per USAspending.gov. Keep both keys. Keep “obligations.” Do not invent a fiscal year. All spending ties stores this pair with other program-by-state pages.

Later bulk files can move the dollars and the 1,972-award count. Prefer the overlay Social Security Retirement Insurance in Montana when the live table and this snapshot diverge. The JSON is a packet, not a second official ledger. CFDA 96.002, Montana federal spending, Montana programs, and All spending ties are the parent hubs, not competing sums.

What this Montana retirement join cannot prove

This page will not treat 1,972 awards as 1,972 people, 1,972 facilities, or 1,972 local programs. It will not compute a per-capita figure because the packet has no population. It will not rank Montana against Idaho, Wyoming, or North Dakota on Social Security retirement insurance. Peer totals are not in these facts.

Disability insurance (96.001) or survivors insurance (96.004) remain outside $11,638,417,992 even though those programs also appear as Montana joins. Adding any of them would manufacture a homemade combined total this packet does not publish. The mean of about $5,901,835 per record will mislead anyone who treats it as a typical monthly benefit and not a typical retiree’s annual check. There is no beneficiary or project census here.

USAspending.gov award counts increment when a new award is recorded and when a modification is stored as its own line, depending on how the bulk file is rolled up. They do not increment when a Montana resident enrolls, files, or starts a project. Treating 1,972 as a count of retirees would collapse two measurement systems. $11,638,417,992 stays an obligation sum on those rows. Keep the overlay Social Security Retirement Insurance in Montana as the live cell if later ingests move dollars or the 1,972-award count. Correlation is not causation.

Questions

How much Social Security Retirement Insurance is obligated in Montana?

USAspending.gov records $11,638,417,992 in CFDA 96.002 obligations across 1,972 awards coded to Montana. That is a program × state join, not an outlay and not Montana’s full federal total. Keep both the program name and Montana in any citation. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.

Is 1,972 a count of Montana retirees?

Award count is a row count. $11,638,417,992 ÷ 1,972 is about $5,901,835 per record as a mean, not a typical monthly benefit and not a typical retiree’s annual check. Large assistance vehicles and modifications can dominate dollars. This packet does not list recipients. See Social Security Retirement Insurance in Montana for the stored table.

Does this include disability or survivors insurance?

No. The $11,638,417,992 and 1,972 awards are USAspending.gov obligation records for CFDA 96.002 with a Montana geography tag. Other SSA catalog numbers are separate joins. The cell does not swallow those programs. Mixing those files with this join would invent a figure the packet does not support.

Where is the live overlay?

Social Security Retirement Insurance in Montana is the overlay. See Montana federal spending, Montana programs, CFDA 96.002, and All spending ties. Later bulk files override this snapshot. Keep the obligation label on $11,638,417,992. Do not invent a fiscal year; this packet publishes none.
