SSA uses Form SSA-8006-F4 in the administration of the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. Recipients' need is the basis for determining SSI payments. Need is measured, in part, by the amount of income an individual receives. Income includes in-kind support and maintenance in the form of food and shelter provided by other persons. Form SSA-8006-F4 collects information to ensure that recipients are eligible to receive SSI payments and to determine the correct amount of payments due. The respondents are individuals who apply for SSI payments, or for SSI eligibility redeterminination.

When we last cleared this IC in 2018, the burden was 20,228. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 14,186 hours. This change stems from a decrease in the number of responses from 173,380 to 121,595. There is no change to the burden time per response. Although the number of responses changed, SSI did not take any actions to cause this change. In addition, we updated the paper version of the form to include the required travel time estimate of 30 minutes, which changed the numbers. Even so, there is no change to the current burden time per response for the paper version of the form. These figures represent current Management Information data.
