The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has marked approximately 3.2 million Social Security number-holders for people aged 120 and older as "deceased" as part of ongoing efforts to root out fraud.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, has marked 3.2 million Social Security accounts of people aged 120 and older as "deceased" to combat fraud. This action follows a Social Security Administration (SSA) records cleanup after Musk criticized the SSA for having accounts of individuals impossibly old. While millions of accounts of people up to 159 years old remain, the SSA has stopped payments to account holders over 115 since 2015, and a report indicates nearly 19 million Social Security numbers for those born in 1920 or earlier are not labeled as deceased due to system issues. A poll showed public support for an audit of the Social Security system by DOGE.
