Adding collection instrument for
online webinar registration form for Work Incentives Seminar
Events, Internet-based seminars that present information on Ticket
to Work Program and work incentives to interested parties (Social
Security beneficiaries, et al). Respondents are beneficiaries,
their family members, employment service providers, and community
partners. This action will increase the public reporting burden.
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.
