1. Disability Report-Adult--20 CFR 404.1512 and 416.912--0960-0579.
State Disability Determination Services (DDS) use the SSA-3368 and its
electronic versions to determine if adult disability applicants'
impairments are severe, and, if so, how the impairments affect the
applicants' ability to work. This determination dictates whether the
DDSs and SSA will find the applicant disabled and entitled to
Supplement Security Income (SSI) payments. The respondents are
applicants for Title II disability benefits or Title XVI SSI payments.
Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information
collection.

404.2011(a)(1), 404.2025, 416.611(a)(1), 416.625--0960-0679. Per 20 CFR
404.2011 and 20 CFR 416.611 of the Code of Federal Regulations, if SSA
determines it may cause substantial harm for Title II or Title XVI
recipients to receive their payments directly, recipients may dispute
that decision. To do so, recipients provide SSA with information the
agency uses to re-evaluate its determination. In addition, our
regulations state that after SSA selects a representative payee to
receive benefits on a recipient's behalf, the payees provide SSA with
information on their continuing relationship and responsibility for the
recipients, and explain how they use the recipients' payments. Sections
20 CFR 404.2025 and 20 CFR 416.625 of the Code of Federal Regulations
provide a process to follow up with the representative payee to verify
payee performance. The respondents are Title II and Title XVI
recipients, and their representative payees.

2. Request for Reconsideration--Disability Cessation--20 CFR
404.909, 416.1409--0960-0349. When SSA determines that claimants'
disabilities ceased or are no longer sufficiently disabling, these
claimants may ask SSA to reconsider that determination. SSA uses Form
SSA-789-U4 to arrange for a hearing or to prepare a decision based on
the evidence of record. Specifically, claimants or their
representatives use Form SSA-789-U4 to: (1) ask SSA to
[[Page 19104]]
reconsider a determination; (2) indicate if they wish to appear at a
disability hearing; (3) submit any additional information or evidence
for use in the reconsidered determination; and (4) indicate if they
will need an interpreter for the hearing. The respondents are
applicants or claimants for Social Security benefits or SSI payments.

3. Prohibition of Payment of SSI Benefits to Fugitive Felons and
Parole/Probation Violators--20 CFR 416.708(o)--0960-0617. Section
1611(e)(4) of the Social Security Act precludes eligibility for SSI
payments for certain fugitives and probation/parole violators.
Regulations at 20 CFR 416.708(o) require individuals applying for or
receiving SSI to report to SSA that: (1) They are fleeing to avoid
prosecution for a crime; (2) they are fleeing to avoid custody or
confinement after conviction of a crime; or (3) they are violating a
condition of probation or parole. SSA uses the information we receive
to deny eligibility, or suspend recipients' SSI payments. The
respondents are SSI applicants and recipients, or representative payees
of SSI applicants and recipients, who are reporting their status as a
fugitive felon or probation/parole violator.

MISC, if applicable; and (3) establish a link between each claim for

6. Request to Pay Civil Monetary by Installment Agreement--20 CFR
498--0960-0776. When SSA imposes a civil monetary penalty (CMP) on
individuals for various fraudulent conduct related to SSA-administrated
programs, those individuals may request to pay the CMP through benefit
withholding, or an installment agreement. To negotiate a monthly
payment amount, fair to both the individual and the agency, SSA needs
financial information from the individual. The agency uses Form SSA-640
to obtain the information necessary to determine a monthly installment
[[Page 19105]]
repayment rate for individuals owing a CMP. The respondents are
recipients of Social Security benefits and non-entitled individuals who
must repay a CMP to the agency and choose to do so using an installment
plan.
