SSA collects information on Forms SSA-1372-BK and SSAâ-372-BK-FC to determine whether children of an insured worked meet the eligibility requirements for student benefits. The data we collect allows SSA to determine student entitlement and assess whether to terminate benefits. SSA uses the SSA-1372-BK for domestic student claimants and the SSA-1372-BK-FC for student claimants living and attending school outside the United States. The respondents are student claimants for Social Security benefits, their respective schools and, in some cases, their representative payees.
US Code:
42 USC 402
Name of Law: Social Security Act
When we last cleared this IC in 2023, the burden was 97,469 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 90,611 hours. This change is a decrease in the number of responses from 467,850 to 434,928. 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 188,044, while the burden cited in #12 of the Supporting Statement is 90,611. This discrepancy is because the ROCIS burden reflects the field office waiting time + a rough estimate of a 30 minute, one-way, drive burden + learning costs. In contrast, the chart in #12 of the Supporting Statement reflects actual burden.
