Abstract:
20 CFR 404.2011 and 416.611 of the Code of Federal Regulations enable SSA to make payments to recipients’ representative payees if it may cause substantial harm for the beneficiaries to receive their payments directly. The regulations allow beneficiaries to dispute a finding that substantial harm exists by providing SSA with evidence to reevaluate the determination. In addition, sections 20 CFR 404.2025 and 416.625 describe the information representative payees must provide SSA about their continuing relationship and responsibility for the recipients, and explain how they use the recipients’ payments to verify payee performance. The respondents are Title II and Title XVI recipients, and their representative payees.

Short Statement:
When we last cleared this IC in 2018, the burden was 363 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 374 hours. This change stems from an increase in the number of responses from 3,250 to 3,350. 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.
