Abstract: SSA bases eligibility for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) on the needs of the recipient. In part, we assess need through determining the amount of income a recipient receives. This income includes in-kind support and maintenance in the form of food and shelter home owners provide. SSA uses Form SSA-8011-F3, Statement of Household Expenses and Contributions, to determine whether the claimant or recipient receives in-kind support and maintenance. This is necessary to determine: (1) The claimant’s or recipient’s eligibility for SSI, and (2) the SSI payment amount. SSA only uses this form in cases where SSA needs the householder’s (head of household) corroboration of in-kind support and maintenance. The SSA-8011-F3 provides information, which could affect SSI eligibility and payment amount. An SSA claims specialist collects the information on Form SSA-8011-F3 through telephone contact with the respondents, or through face-to-face interviews. The claims specialist records the information in our electronic SSI Claims System. When we use this procedure, we do not use a paper Form SSA-8011-F3, and we do not require a wet signature, rather we request verbal attestation. However, for those few instances when we use a paper form, we ensure the appropriate person, i.e., the householder, signs the form, and then the claims specialist documents the information in the SSI Claims System; faxes the form into the appropriate electronic folder; and shreds the form. Respondents are householders of homes in which an SSI applicant or recipient resides.

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: When we last cleared this IC in 2018, the burden was 106,314 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 104,940 hours. This decrease stems from an decrease in the number of responses from 425,258 to 419,759. In addition, we also separated out the paper modality from the SSI Claims System modality. 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. Finally, as per OMB’s request, we included the 30-minute travel time to a field office in our burden calculations, which also increased the burden.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $2,219,748
