Abstract:
SSA collects information on Forms SSA-2930, SSA-2931, and SSA-2932 to establish a national payment accuracy rate for all cases in payment status, and to serve as a source of information regarding problem areas in the Retirement and Survivors Insurance (RSI) and Disability Insurance (DI) programs. SSA also uses the information to measure the accuracy rate for newly adjudicated RSI/DI cases. SSA collects information on Form SSA-4659 to evaluate and determine the effectiveness of the annual earnings test, and uses the results in developing ongoing improvements in the process. SSA sends each beneficiary an appointment letter for the interview. About 25 percent of respondents will have face-to-face contact reviews and receive one of the following letters for an appointment: SSA-L8550-U3 (Appointment Letter- Sample Individual), SSA-L8551-U3 (Appointment Letter- Sample Family), or the SSA-L8552-U3 (Appointment Letter-Rep Payee). The other 75 percent of respondents will receive a notice for a telephone contact review: either the SSA-L8553-U3 (Beneficiary Telephone Contact), or the SSA-L8554-U3 (Rep Payee Telephone Contact) notice. To help the beneficiary prepare for the interview, we include three forms with each notice: 1) SSA-85 (Information Needed to Review Your Social Security Claim) that lists the information the respondents will need to gather to prepare for the interview. 2) SSA-2935 (Authorization to the Social Security Administration to Obtain Personal Information) so SSA can obtain information to verify the correctness of the payment to the beneficiary. 3) SSA-8552 (Interview Confirmation) to confirm or reschedule the interview if necessary. The respondents are a statistically valid sample of all RSI/DI beneficiaries in current pay status or their representative payees. The respondents are a statistically valid sample of all RSI/DI beneficiaries in current pay status or their representative payees. This ICR is for a non-substantive change request.
