Agency Information Collection Activities: Comment Request

    The Social Security Administration (SSA) publishes a list of 
information collection packages that will require clearance by the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in compliance with Pub. L. 104-
13, the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, effective October 1, 1995. The 
information collection packages that may be included in this notice are 
for new information collections, approval of existing information 
collections, revisions to OMB-approved information collections, and 
extensions (no change) of OMB-approved information collections.
    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. Written comments 
and recommendations regarding the information collection(s) should be 
submitted to the OMB Desk Officer and the SSA Reports Clearance 
Officer. The information can be mailed, faxed or e-mailed to the 
individuals at the addresses and fax numbers listed below:

(OMB)
Office of Management and Budget, Attn: Desk Officer for SSA, Fax: 202-
395-6974, E-mail address: OIRA--Submission@omb.eop.gov.

    The information collections listed below have been submitted to OMB 
for clearance. Your comments on the information collections would be 
most useful if received by OMB and SSA within 30 days from the date of 
this publication. You can obtain a copy of the OMB clearance packages 
by calling the SSA Reports Clearance Officer at 410-965-0454, or by

    Letter to Custodian of Birth Records/Letter to Custodian of School 
Records--20 CFR 404.704, 404.716, 416.802, and 422.107--0960-0693. SSA 
prepares the SSA-L106 and SSA-L706 for individuals who need help in 
obtaining evidence of their age in connection with Social Security 
number card applications and claims for benefits. SSA uses the SSA-L706 
to determine the existence of primary evidence of age for Social 
Security Number (SSN) applicants. SSA also uses both letters to verify 
with the issuing entity, when necessary, the authenticity of the record 
submitted by the SSN applicant or claimant. The respondents are 
schools, state and local bureaus of vital statistics, and religious 
entities.
    Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information 
collection.
    Number of Respondents: 7,200.
    Frequency of Response: 1.
    Average Burden Per Response: 10 minutes.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 1,200 hours.

    Dated: November 20, 2007.
