    3. Request for Accommodation in Communication Method--0960-0777. 
SSA allows blind or visually impaired Social Security applicants, 
beneficiaries, recipients, and representative payees to choose one of 
seven alternative methods of communication they want SSA to use when we 
send them benefit notices and other related communications. The seven 
alternative methods we offer are: (1) Standard print notice by first-
class mail; (2) standard print mail with a follow-up telephone call; 
(3) certified mail; (4) Braille; (5) Microsoft Word file on data CD; 
(6) large print (18-point font); or (7) audio CD. However, respondents 
who want to receive notices from SSA through a communication method 
other than the seven methods listed above must explain their request to 
us. Those respondents use Form SSA-9000 to: (1) Describe the type of 
accommodation they want, (2) disclose their condition necessitating the 
need for a different type of accommodation, and (3) explain why none of 
the seven methods described above are sufficient for their needs. SSA 
uses Form SSA-9000 to determine, based on applicable law and 
regulation, whether to grant the respondents' requests for an 
accommodation based on their blindness, or other visual impairment. SSA 
collects this information electronically through either an in-person 
interview or a telephone interview during which the SSA employee keys 
in the information on Intranet screens. The respondents are blind or 
visually impaired Social Security applicants, beneficiaries, 
recipients, and representative payees who ask SSA to send notices and 
other communications in an alternative method besides the seven 
modalities we currently offer.
    Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information 
collection.

    This is a correction notice: SSA published this information 
collection with incorrect burden information at 78 FR 33142 on June 3, 
2013. We are providing the corrected burden here.
    II. SSA submitted the information collections below to OMB for 
clearance. Your comments regarding the information collections would be 
most useful if OMB and SSA receive them 30 days from the date of this 
publication. To be sure we consider your comments, we must receive them 
no later than July 17, 2013. Individuals can obtain copies of the OMB 
clearance packages by writing to OR.Reports.Clearance@ssa.gov.
    1. Representative Payee Evaluation Report--20 CFR 404.2065 & 
416.665--0960-0069. Sections 205(j) and 1631(a)(2) of the Act state SSA 
may appoint a representative payee to receive title II benefits or 
title XVI payments on behalf of individuals unable to manage or direct 
the management of those funds themselves. SSA requires appointed 
representative payees to report once each year on how they used or 
conserved those funds. When a representative payee fails to adequately 
report to SSA as required, SSA conducts a face-to-face interview with 
the payee and completes Form SSA-624, Representative Payee Evaluation 
Report, to determine the continued suitability of the representative 
payee to serve as a payee. The respondents are individuals or 
organizations serving as representative payees for individuals 
receiving title II benefits or title XVI payments and who fail to 
comply with SSA's statutory annual reporting requirement.
    Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information 
collection.

    2. Waiver of Supplemental Security Income Payment Continuation--20 
CFR 416.1400-416.1422--0960-0783. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) 
recipients who wish to discontinue their SSI payments while awaiting a 
determination on their appeal complete Form SSA-263-U2, Waiver of 
Supplemental Security Income Payment Continuation, to inform SSA of 
this decision. SSA collects the information to determine whether the 
SSI recipient meets the provisions of the Act regarding waiver of 
payment continuation and as proof respondents no longer want their 
payments to continue. Respondents are recipients of SSI payments who 
wish to discontinue receipt of payment while awaiting a determination 
on their appeal.
    Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information 
collection.
