416.1130–416.1148–0960–0529. SSA
bases an SSI claimant or recipient’s
eligibility on need, as measured by the
amount of income an individual
receives. Per our calculations, income
includes other people providing in-kind
support and maintenance in the form of
food and shelter to SSI applicants or
recipients. SSA uses Forms SSA–5062
and SSA–L5063 to obtain statements

about food or shelter provided to SSI
claimants or recipients. SSA uses this
information to determine whether food
or shelters are bona fide loans or income
for SSI purposes. This determination
may affect the claimants’ or recipients’
eligibility for SSI as well as the amounts
of their SSI payments. The respondents
are claimants and recipients for SSI
payments, and individuals who provide

3. Certification of Prisoner Identity
Information—20 CFR 422.107—0960–
0688. Inmates of Federal, State, or local
prisons may need a Social Security card
as verification of their Social Security
number for school or work programs, or
as proof of employment eligibility upon
release from incarceration. Before SSA
can issue a replacement Social Security
card, applicants must show SSA proof
of their identity. People who are in
prison for an extended period typically
do not have current identity documents.
Therefore, under formal written
agreement with the correctional
institution, SSA allows prison officials
to verify the identity of certain
incarcerated U.S. citizens who need
replacement Social Security cards.
Information prison officials provide
comes from the official prison files, sent
on correctional facility letterhead. SSA
uses this information to establish the
applicant’s identity in the replacement
Social Security card process. The
respondents are prison officials who
certify the identity of prisoners applying
for replacement Social Security cards.

OMB-approved Information Collection.

1. Claimant Statement about Loan of Food or Shelter; Statement
about Food or Shelter Provided to Another--20 CFR 416.1130-416.1148-
0960-0529. SSA bases an SSI claimant or recipient's eligibility on
need, as measured by the amount of income an individual receives. Per
our calculations, income includes other people providing in-kind
support and maintenance in the form of food and shelter to SSI
applicants or recipients. SSA uses Forms SSA-5062 and SSA-L5063 to
obtain statements about food or shelter provided to SSI claimants or
recipients. SSA uses this information to determine whether food or
shelters are bona fide loans or income for SSI purposes. This
determination may affect the claimants' or recipients' eligibility for
SSI as well as the amounts of their SSI payments. The respondents are
claimants and recipients for SSI payments, and individuals who provide
loans of food or shelter to them.
