Abstract:
SSA uses the SSA-783 to collect information regarding a child's current sources of support when determining the child's entitlement to Social Security benefits. We request this information from adults acting on behalf of the child claimants who can provide SSA with any sources of support or substantial contributions for the child. These adults inform the claims representative as part of the initial benefits process. If the individual capable of providing the information does not accompany the child claimant, we mail the SSA-783 to the individual for completion, or if the person has access to a computer, we will refer them to SSA's website. The respondents are individuals providing information about a child's sources of support.

Short Statement:
When we last cleared this information collection in 2017, the burden was 8,500 hours; however, we are currently reporting a burden of 588 hours. In the prior clearance package, we estimated 30,000 responses. We are updating the burden based on current management information data showing the number of annual responses for a recent twelve-month period was 2,352. There is no change to the burden time per response. Although the number of responses changed, SSA did not take any actions to cause this change. These figures represent current management information data. * Note: The total burden reflected in ROCIS is 2,705, while the burden cited in #12 of the Supporting Statement is 588. This discrepancy is because the ROCIS burden reflects the following components: field office waiting time + a rough estimate of a 30-minute, one-way, drive burden. In contrast, the chart in #12 of the Supporting Statement reflects actual burden.
