SSA seeks comments on proposed information gathering activities

The Social Security Administration is soliciting comments from the public regarding a number of new forms and other information gathering activities prior to clearance by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) as well as for some activities for which clearance has already been sought.

Specifically, the SSA wants feedback on the need for the information solicited; its practical utility; the accuracy of the agency's burden estimate; ways to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the manner in which the information is collected; and ways to minimize the burden on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

The forms and other information gathering activities for which comments are sought are listed in the November 30, 2007, Federal Register (72 Fed. Reg. 62776). Comments may be mailed or faxed to the addresses and numbers listed in the notice.

Comments due January 29, 2008

Comments on the following proposed data collection requests, which have not yet been submitted to the OMB for approval, are due January 29, 2008: Request for Review of Hearing Decision/Order (HA-520); Epidemiological Research Report; Work Activity Report (Self-Employed Person) (SSA-820-F4); Student Reporting Form (SSA-1383); and Electronic Death Registration (EDR).
