Abstract:
The Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) is the mechanism for compensating people who Federal employees injured through negligent or wrongful acts that occurred during the performance of those employees’ official duties. SSA accepts claims filed under the FTCA for damages against the United States; loss of property; personal injury; or death resulting from an SSA employee’s wrongful act or omission. The various types of claims included under this information collection request require claimants to provide information SSA can use to determine whether to make an award, compromise, or settlement under the FTCA. The respondents are individuals or entities making a claim under the FTCA.

Short Statement:
When we last cleared this IC in 2021, the burden was 64 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 41 hours. This stems from a minor decrease in respondents choosing to respond via written statement instead of using the SF-95 (OMB No. 1105 0008). 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.
