Abstract:
This information collection request (ICR) comprises several regulation sections which provide additional safeguards for Social Security beneficiaries whose representative payees receive their payments. SSA requires representative payees to notify us of any event or change in circumstances that would affect receipt of benefits or performance of payee duties. SSA uses the information to determine continued eligibility for benefits, the amount of benefits due, and if the payee is suitable to continue servicing as payee. The respondents are representative payees who receive and use benefits on behalf of Social Security recipients.

Short Statement:
When we last cleared this IC in 2019, the burden was 76,147 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 78,429 hours. This change stems an increase in the number of responses from 913,739 to 941,147. 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.
