PO 00000 Frm 00097 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 48547 Electronic Protective Filing Tool—20 CFR 404.630, and 20 CFR 416.340– 416.345—0960–0826. The COVID–19 pandemic limited the public’s access to SSA Field Offices (FOs), requiring SSA to rapidly expand online services available to the public. During the time when SSA stopped accepting walk-in visitors, the agency noticed a sharp decrease in SSI claims from underserved populations who have historically relied on in-office appointments and service. SSA uses the term ‘‘People facing barriers’’ to refer to these vulnerable populations, which include low-income individuals (especially those over age 65), the homeless, people with limited English proficiency, and disabled children. Background Historically, individuals contact SSA by phone, in person, or by mail to express interest in filing for benefits. Because same-day service to file an application is not always possible, and because some individuals prefer to make an appointment, SSA technicians use eLAS (OMB No. 0960–0822) to set up appointments and record the protective filing date for potential claimants. This process ensures that potential claimants do not miss out on possible benefits due to the lack of same-day service. Protective filing is the precursor to filing an application for benefits. Protective filing refers to the date by which SSA receives an individual’s intent to file for SSI payments, which SSA then uses as the application date provided the individual files an application within a specific amount of time after that date. Therefore, it is as if the application was filed on the day the individual contacted SSA to express interest in filing, which may result in additional payments to that individual. SSA developed an online tool to allow internet users to request an appointment to file an application for benefits and to establish a protective filing date with SSA. The electronic protective filing tool allows individuals to submit information for the appointment request using a computing device, such as a personal computer or handheld (mobile) device instead of calling SSA by phone or visiting an FO. The tool is available on SSA’s website to potential claimants, as well as those individuals assisting them. Information the Electronic Protective Filing Tool Collects After entering the ePFT from SSA’s website, individuals begin on a welcome screen that displays a link to the Terms of Service.
