The FY2027 President's Budget requests $5.75B for Regular LAE: OASDI Trust Funds, within Social Security Admin's Limitation on Administrative Expenses account. That is up 0.3% on the FY2026 figure of $5.74B, which is the enacted appropriation.
FY2025–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | enacted | $5,627.1M |
| FY2026 | enacted | $5,736.1M |
| FY2027 | request | $5,751.1M |
Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Social Security Admin discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Social Security Admin's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
The Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance trust funds' share of SSA's administrative expenses for operating the Social Security retirement, survivors, and disability programs.
Extracted from Social Security Administration, p. 45. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
Contracts funded by this line
1 linked contract. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.
| Contract | Vendor | Confidence | Obligated |
|---|---|---|---|

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.

Answers come from the figures on this page and nothing else. These dollars are parsed from Social Security Admin's Congressional Justification and are approximate — confirm anything that matters against the cited page.
