Social Security Survivors Insurance obligations in Georgia

What the 96.004–Georgia join is

CFDA 96.004 is titled SOCIAL SECURITY SURVIVORS INSURANCE. Crossed with Georgia place of performance, obligations sum to $8,251,196,276 on 9,383 awards. The national 96.004 hub includes other states. Georgia’s spending hub includes other programs. Only this intersection is reported here. $8,251,196,276 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of surviving spouses or children in Atlanta or Savannah.

9,383 awards is a denser book than many formula-grant cells at a similar dollar scale. SSA programs often post many payment instruments rather than a handful of statewide grants. The join does not name SSA field offices, list beneficiaries, or count eligible survivors. Packet facts stop at $8,251,196,276, 9,383 awards, GA, and 96.004.

96.004 is not retirement or SSI

Social Security retirement insurance and Supplemental Security Income (CFDA 96.006) are different SSA catalogs. Mixing those dollars into $8,251,196,276 would invent a broader income-security total than this cell contains. Disability insurance uses other numbers still. Facts available: Georgia, CFDA 96.004, $8,251,196,276, 9,383 awards. Benefit formulas and caseload counts are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Social Security Survivors Insurance, not a ranking of county need. Dividing $8,251,196,276 by 9,383 yields about $879,377 per award—a record-level ratio, not a typical monthly survivor check. Unique recipients are unpublished. 9,383 is not a count of households. Compared with a North Carolina 96.004 cell, this Georgia book has more award rows against a similar nine-figure-plus total; that is a reporting pattern, not a ranking of states.

Georgia geography on the survivors tag

GA is the place-of-performance code. A survivors-insurance award can still appear as records tagged to Atlanta, Augusta, or another in-state address. Awards coded to Alabama, Florida, or South Carolina stay outside $8,251,196,276 even when a beneficiary lives in a cross-border metro. The code does not convert $8.25 billion into a county map.

Georgia federal spending is the all-program parent. 96.004 is one row on Georgia programs. $8.25 billion is not the state’s complete federal footprint. Open Social Security Survivors Insurance in Georgia for the filtered table, CFDA 96.004 for 96.004 without a Georgia filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $8,251,196,276.

Reading 9,383 awards under $8.25 billion

$8,251,196,276 ÷ 9,383 is about $879,377 per award. That average is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical monthly benefit and not a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 9,383 as a record count, not as 9,383 finished cases.

USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $8,251,196,276 is the net total supplied in the facts. Without a transaction register, you cannot see how many of the 9,383 rows are continuations, corrections, or payment batches. Later ingests can restate $8,251,196,276 without changing the join key of 96.004 and GA.

What the survivors–Georgia pair does not prove

A large 96.004 total tagged to Georgia does not measure whether survivor benefits were adequate, and it does not equal services delivered. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $8,251,196,276 on 9,383 awards for Social Security Survivors Insurance in Georgia.

Keep both sides of the join: Social Security Survivors Insurance and Georgia, obligations only. Do not annualize $8,251,196,276 without a year field—this packet publishes none. Do not treat 9,383 as a beneficiary census. Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a hardship story.

Using the 96.004–Georgia overlay

CFDA 96.004 drops the Georgia filter. Georgia federal spending drops the CFDA filter. Georgia programs lists other catalogs beside 96.004. All spending ties indexes other pairs.

This page exists because two tables meet: a CFDA program and a place-of-performance state. It does not exist to argue that Georgia won or lost federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. The pair is 96.004 plus GA. Obligations of $8,251,196,276 are not outlays.
