When determining the effects of a child's impairment(s), SSA obtains information about the childâs functioning from teachers; parents; and others who observe the child on a daily basis. SSA requests teachers complete the SSA-5665, Teacherâs Questionnaire to obtain a report on the childâs daily overall functioning, comprehension, and known medical conditions throughout the school day. SSA requests the school administration to complete the SSA-5666, Request for Administrative Information, to obtain formal testing results, other teacher reports, therapy progress notes, individualized education program documents, and other records of a child's educational aptitude and achievements. The respondents are teachers, educational administrators, and other education personnel.
When we cleared the this ICR in 2023, the burden was 209,952 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 218,353 hours. This change stems an increase in the number of responses from 337,725 to 366,210. 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.
*Note: The total burden reflected in ROCIS is 362,777, while the burden cited in #12 of the Supporting Statement is 218,353. This discrepancy is because the ROCIS burden also reflects the learning cost burden. In contrast, the chart in #12 above reflects actual burden.
