Periodically SSA uses Form SSA-455, the Disability Report Update, to evaluate current Title II disability beneficiaries and Title XVI disability payment recipients' continued eligibility for Social Security disability payments. Specifically, SSA uses the form to determine if: (1) there is enough evidence to warrant referring the respondent for a full medical Continuing Disability Review (CDR); (2) the respondent's impairment(s) is still present and is indicative of no medical improvement, precluding the need for a CDR; or (3) there are unresolved work-related issues for the respondent. SSA mails Form SSA-455 to specific disability recipients, whom we select as possibly qualifying for the continuing disability review process. SSA pre-fills the form with data specific to the disability recipient, except for the sections we ask the beneficiary to complete. When SSA receives the completed form, we optically scan it into SSA's system. This allows us to gather the information electronically to enable SSA to process the returned forms through automated decision logic to decide the proper course of action we will take. The respondents are recipients of Title II and Title XVI Social Security disability payments.

When we last cleared this IC in 2017, the burden was 375,000 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 325,000 hours. This change stems from a decrease in the number of responses from 1,500,000 to 1,300,000. 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.
