Form SSA–704 allows SSA employees; State record custodians; and other custodians of evidentiary documents to certify and record information from original documents and records under their custodial ownership to establish these types of evidence.

SSA requires SSI recipients to report changes which could affect their eligibility for, and the amount of, their SSI payments, such as changes in income, resources, and living arrangements. SSA’s SSI Telephone Wage Reporting (SSITWR) and SSI Mobile Wage Reporting (SSIMWR) enable SSI recipients to meet these requirements via an automated mechanism to report their monthly wages by telephone and mobile application, instead of contacting their local field offices. The SSITWR allows callers to report their wages by speaking their responses through voice recognition technology, or by keying in responses using a telephone key pad. The SSIMWR allows recipients to report their wages through the mobile wage reporting application on their smartphone. SSITWR and SSIMWR systems collect the same information and send it to SSA over secure channels. To ensure the security of the information provided, SSITWR and SSIMWR ask respondents to provide information SSA can compare against our records for authentication purposes. Once the system authenticates the identity of the respondents, they can report their wage data. The respondents are SSI recipients, deemors, or their representative payees.

categories: (1) Entitled individuals who engage in remunerative
activity outside of the United States in excess of 45 hours a month;

benefits; (2) correct benefit amounts for beneficiaries outside the
United States; and (3) monitor the performance of representative payees

(or every other year, depending on the country of residence) review for
fraud prevention. In addition, the results can affect benefits by
increasing or decreasing payment amount or by causing SSA to suspend or
terminate benefits. The respondents are individuals living outside the
United States who are receiving benefits on their own (or on

2. Application for Benefits Under the Italy-U.S. International
Social Security Agreement--20 CFR 404.1925--0960-0445. As per the
November 1, 1978 agreement between the United States and Italian Social
Security agencies, residents of Italy filing an application for U.S.
Social Security benefits directly with one of the Italian Social
Security agencies must complete Form SSA-2528. SSA uses Form SSA-2528
to establish age, relationship, citizenship, marriage, death, military
service, or to evaluate a family bible or other family record when
determining eligibility for benefits. The Italian Social Security
agencies assist applicants in completing Form SSA-2528, and then
forward the

[[Page 24157]]

application to SSA for processing. The respondents are individuals
living in Italy who wish to file for U.S. Social Security benefits.
Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information
collection.

3. Child Care Dropout Questionnaire--20 CFR 404.211(e)(4)--0960-
0474. If individuals applying for title II disability benefits care for
their own or their spouse's children under age 3, and have no steady
earnings during the time they care for those children, they may exclude
that period of care from the disability computation period. We call
this the child-care dropout exclusion. SSA uses the information from
Form SSA-4162 to determine if an individual qualifies for this
exclusion. Respondents are applicants for title II disability benefits.
Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information
collection.

4. Certification of Contents of Document(s) or Record(s)--20 CFR
404.715--0960-0689. SSA established procedures for individuals to
provide the evidence necessary to establish their rights to Social
Security benefits. Examples of such evidence categories include age,
relationship, citizenship, marriage, death, and military service. Form
SSA-704 allows SSA employees; State record custodians; and other
custodians of evidentiary documents to certify and record information
from original documents and records under their custodial ownership to
establish these types of evidence. SSA uses Form SSA-704 in situations
where individuals cannot produce the original evidentiary documentation
required to establish benefits eligibility. The respondents are State
record custodians and other custodians of evidentiary documents.
Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information
collection.

5. Supplemental Security Income Wage Reporting (Telephone and
Mobile)--20 CFR 416.701-732--0960-0715. SSA requires SSI recipients to
report changes which could affect their eligibility for, and the amount
of, their SSI payments, such as changes in income, resources, and
living arrangements. SSA's SSI Telephone Wage Reporting (SSITWR) and
SSI Mobile Wage Reporting (SSIMWR) enable SSI recipients to meet these
requirements via an automated mechanism to report their monthly wages
by telephone and mobile application, instead of contacting their local
field offices. The SSITWR allows callers to report their wages by
speaking their responses through voice recognition technology, or by
keying in responses using a telephone key pad. The SSIMWR allows
recipients to report their wages through the mobile wage reporting
application on their smartphone. SSITWR and SSIMWR systems collect the
same information and send it to SSA over secure channels. To ensure the
security of the information provided, SSITWR and SSIMWR ask respondents
to provide information SSA can compare against our records for
authentication purposes. Once the system authenticates the identity of
the respondents, they can report their wage data. The respondents are
SSI recipients, deemors, or their representative payees.
Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information
collection.
