OMB 0960-0836
The Beyond Benefits Study (BBS) is designed to provide SSA with information regarding the needs of individuals who have exited or are likely to exit the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program. The BBS will provide SSA with a clearer understanding of the challenges and needs of the target population as individuals leave the safety net and security of disability benefits and attempt to return to work. The study will focus on services, medical, and employment needs and data will be collected utilizing a survey, interviews, and focus groups. The study will include a Motivational Interviewing Pilot Test with motivational interviewers who will conduct six sessions and then the interviewers will participate in a follow-up focus group. SSA will use the findings from the BBS to identify potential interventions and policies to help individuals achieve sustainable, substantial work leading to self-sufficiency. We are submitting this nonsubstantive change request to switch the format of the collection from focus groups to interviews.
The latest form for SSA Beyond Benefits Study (BBS) Data Collection expires 2027-03-31 and is listed under ICR 202411-0960-012.
