When SSA determines it is not in
beneficiaries' best interests to receive their Social Security
benefits payments directly, the Agency will designate a family
member, unrelated person, or organization to act as the
representative payee for such beneficiaries. Representative payees
must account to SSA about how they use these payments on their
beneficiaries' behalf; they use forms SSA-623 (for adult
beneficiaries), SSA-6230 (for child beneficiaries), and SSA-6234
(organizational rep payees) to do so. This ICR is for three changes
to the collection: 1) we are clearing an Internet version of the
Representative Payee Report, 2) we are combining all three paper
forms under one OMB number, 0960-0068, and 3) we are making minor
formatting changes to the first page of the paper forms'
instructions.
