Promoting Opportunity Project (POD)

OMB 0960-0809

Section 823 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 required SSA to carry out the Promoting Opportunity Demonstration (POD) to test a new benefit offset formula for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) beneficiaries. Therefore, SSA is undertaking POD, a demonstration to evaluate the affect the new policy will have on SSDI beneficiaries and their families in several critical areas. We previously obtained OMB approval for this demonstration, and are in the midst of implementing the project. In this information collection request, we are seeking approval to add new questions to our follow-up surveys. Respondents are SSDI beneficiaries, who will provide written consent before agreeing to participate in the study and before we randomly assign them to one of the study treatment groups.

The latest form for Promoting Opportunity Project (POD) expires 2022-04-30 and is listed under ICR 201901-0960-002.
