SSA uses form SSA-8202-BK to conduct low- and middle-error profile (LEP-MEP) telephone or face-to-face redetermination (RZ) interviews with SSI recipients and representative payees. The information is used to determine whether SSI recipients meet all statutory and regulatory requirements for SSI eligibility and whether they have been and are still receiving the correct payment amount. Form SSA-8202-OCR-SM collects similar information to Form SSA-8202-BK; however, it is used exclusively in LEP RZ cases on a 6-year cycle.
The decrease in the public reporting burden is the result of budgetary constraints. The FY07 Presidential budget substantially reduced the amount of funds for SSI redeterminations.
