Abstract: Form SSA-371 is used by former beneficiaries for Title II benefits who wish to request Expedited Reinstatement (EXR) of their Title II disability benefits. SSA uses the SSA-371 to obtain a signed statement from the individual stating a request for EXR and proving that the applicant meets the EXR requirements. The Form is maintained in the disability folder of the applicant to demonstrate that the individual is aware of the EXR requirements and chose to request EXR. Respondents are applicants for EXR of Title II disability benefits.
