COFFEY, Circuit Judge.
In January 1993, the Social Security Administration (“SSA”) certified Sampson Strong (“Strong”) as a “representative payee” to receive Supplemental Security Income (“SSI”) payments on behalf of his minor niece, Gloria Faye Cannon (“Gloria”). 1 A few weeks later, in February 1993, the SSA sent Strong a lump-sum payment of $23,202.98 in past due SSI on Gloria’s behalf. But Strong neglected to use this money for Gloria’s use and benefit, and on January 22, 1994, the SSA determined that Strong had misused $22,-767.68 of Gloria’s SSI money by spending it on himself.
