Abstract: SSA requires SSI recipients to report changes, which could affect their eligibility for, and the amount of their SSI payments, such as changes in income, resources, and living arrangements. SSA’s SSI Telephone Wage Reporting (SSITWR) and SSA Mobile Wage Reporting (SSAMWR) enable SSI recipients to meet these requirements via an automated mechanism to report their monthly wages by telephone and mobile application, instead of contacting their local field offices. The SSITWR allows callers to report their wages by speaking their responses through voice recognition technology, or by keying in responses using a telephone key pad. The SSAMWR allows recipients to report their wages trough the mobile wage reporting application on their smartphone. SSITWR and SSAMWR systems collect the same information and send it to SSA over secure channels. To ensure the security of the information provided, SSITWR and SSAMWR ask respondents to provide information SSA can compare against our records for authentication purposes. Once the system authenticates the identity of the respondents, they can report their wage data. The respondents are SSI recipients, deemors, or their representative payees. SSA is seeking approval for non-substantive IT modifications to the screens for the SSA Mobile Wage Reporting application.
