Abstract: The myWageReport application will enable SSDI beneficiaries and representative payees to report earnings electronically. It will also generate a receipt for the beneficiary or representative payee, thus providing confirmation that SSA has received the earnings report. SSA will screen the information submitted through the myWageReport application and will determine if we need additional employment information. If so, agency personnel will reach out to beneficiaries or their representative payees and will use Form SSA-821. Work Activity Report (0960-0059), to collect the additional required information. The respondents for this collection are SSDI recipients or their representative payees.

This change stems a decrease in the number of responses from 458,000 to 88,000. There is no change to the burden time per response. Although the number of responses changed, SSA did not take any actions to cause this change. These figures represent current Management Information data.
