SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION
Agency Information Collection Activities: Emergency Review
Request and Proposed Request
In compliance with Public Law 104-13, the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995, SSA is providing notice of its information collections that
require submission to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). SSA is
requesting emergency consideration from OMB by March 29, 1999 of the
information collection listed below.
Disability Update Report--0960-0511. The Social Security Act
requires a periodic review of the disabled status of recipients whose
benefits are based on disability to determine whether they continue to
be eligible for these benefits. SSA uses the information collected on
the SSA-455 to identify those beneficiaries who have medically improved
and/or returned to work and have substantial earnings, and to decide
whether a full medical continuing disability review should be conducted
or deferred to a later date. The respondents are recipients of
[[Page 13840]]
supplemental security income and/or social security disability
benefits.
Number of Respondents: 900,000.
Frequency of Response: 1.
Average Burden Per Response: 15 minutes.
Estimated Annual Burden: 225,000 hours.
In addition, SSA will submit this collection for approval under the
normal OMB clearance process. SSA is soliciting comments on the
accuracy of the agency's burden estimate; the need for the information;
its practical utility; ways to enhance its quality, utility and
clarity; and on ways to minimize burden on respondents, including the
use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information
technology.
Comments should be directed to the OMB Desk Officer and the SSA
Reports Clearance Officer at the addresses listed below. You can obtain
a copy of the collection instrument and/or OMB clearance package by
calling the SSA Reports Clearance Officer on (410) 965-4145, or by
writing to him. Comments will be most useful if received within 60 days
from the date of this notice.
