Abstract: Through its Ticket to Work Program Manager, SSA uses the information collected to operate and manage the Ticket to Work Program. SSA uses the Ticket to Work Program to assign Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) beneficiaries to a service provider, and follows their progress through the various stages of ticket program participation such as progress reviews or changes in ticket status. Most of the collections in this request require service providers to provide information to SSA for such tasks as selecting a payment system or requesting payments for helping the beneficiary achieve certain work goals. Most of the categories of information collected in this request are required for SSA to be in compliance with the Ticket to Work legislation and provide proper oversight of the program. The respondents are SSDI beneficiaries and blind or disabled SSI beneficiaries and their employment networks or State vocational rehabilitation agencies under the Ticket to Work Program.

Burden Increase Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The annual reporting burden for these information collections have changed. We are making a couple program changes from the Amendments to the Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Program (967F) (see Addendum). In general, SSA has adjusted the burden hours based primarily on the use of better management information about the number of respondents and the average burden per response. In addition, the use of electronic data sharing has significantly lowered the burden associated with the two largest information collections in this request. Finally, we are combining this collection with OMB Control No. 0960-0641 (for SSA-1365), which is a program change that increases the burden.
