SSA is soliciting comments on the

1. Help America Vote Act—0960–
0706. H.R. 3295, the Help America Vote
Act of 2002, mandates that States verify
the identities of newly registered voters.
When newly registered voters do not
have drivers’ licenses or State-issued ID
cards, they must supply the last four
digits of their Social Security Numbers
to their local State election agencies for

verification. The election agencies
forward this information to their State
Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA)
that inputs the data into the American
Association of MVAs, a central
consolidation system that routes the
voter data to SSA’s Help America Vote
Verification (HAVV) system. Once
SSA’s HAVV system has confirmed the
identity of the voter, the information
will be returned along the same route
(in reverse) until it reaches the State
election agency. The official
respondents for this collection are the
State MVAs.
Type of Request: Extension of an
OMB-approved information collection.
Number of Respondents: 2,352,204.
Frequency of Response: 1.
Average Burden per Response: 2
minutes.
Estimated Annual Burden: 78,407
hours.
2. National Direct Deposit Initiative—
31 CFR 210—0960–0711. Many SSA
benefits recipients choose to receive
their payments via the Direct Deposit
Program, in which SSA transfers funds
directly to recipients’ accounts at a
financial institution (FI). However,
many Title II payment recipients still
receive their payments through
traditional paper checks. In an effort to
encourage these beneficiaries to change
from paper checks to the Direct Deposit
Program, SSA is collaborating with the
Department of the Treasury and several
FIs on a National Direct Deposit
Initiative. In this program, SSA will
work with FIs to determine which of the
target Title II beneficiaries have
accounts at the participating banks. The
banks will then send forms to these
beneficiaries encouraging them to enroll
in the Direct Deposit Program. The
respondents are the participating FIs
and Title II beneficiaries currently
receiving their payments via check.
Type of Request: Extension of an
OMB-approved information collection.
