Abstract: SSA is incorporating a fillable PDF version of Form SSA-3368 to this information collection (OMB No. 0960-0579). This action does not affect the public reporting burden. State Disability Determination Services (DDS) use the SSA–3368 and its electronic versions to determine if an adult disability applicant's impairment(s) is severe and, if so, how the impairment(s) affects the applicant's ability to work. This determination dictates whether the DDSs and SSA will find the applicant to be disabled. Therefore, the information the DDSs collect on this form is crucial in making disability determinations for all adult claimants filing for SSA disability benefits or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments. The respondents are applicants for title II disability benefits or title XVI SSI payments. At the beginning of 2012, SSA initiated a project to streamline the internet disability application process and make it more user-friendly for the public. Under this enhancement project, the three essential documents (i.e., iClaim, i3368, and SSA-827) were consolidated into a single online application experience that is less cumbersome than the existing separate applications. The enhanced application also allows for quicker claims processing because it ensures that the supporting documents are completed at the same time as the application form. We are making minor revisions to the streamlined screens.
