Abstract: SSA uses this information collection to determine SSI eligibility or the benefit amount for SSI recipients who enter or leave institutions. SSA field offices and teleservice centers collect this information directly from the recipient or someone reporting on behalf of the recipient. A recipient who enters an institution may not be able report, so a family member sometimes makes this report on behalf of the recipient. When contacting SSA the recipient or family member of the recipient will provide the name of the facility, the date of admission and date of discharge. The respondent may submit this information in person, by telephone, by fax, or by mail. The respondents are SSI recipients.
