The Social Security Administration has issued an acquiescence ruling, agreeing to abide by Fowlkes v. Adamec, 432 F.3d 90 (2d Cir. 2005), in the Second Circuit area. The Second Circuit held in Fowlkes that a person could not be a fugitive felon and ineligible for Social Security benefits if he or she were unaware that they were being sought. This ruling applies only in New York, Connecticut and Vermont.
