The Government-to-Government Services
Online (GSO) web site allows various external organizations to
submit files to a variety of SSA systems and, in some cases,
receive files in return. The SSA systems that process data
transferred via Government-to-Government services include, but are
not limited to, systems responsible for disability processing and
benefit determination or termination. SSA uses the information from
Form SSA-159 (Government-to-Government Services Online Website
Registration Form) to register the requestor to use the GSO
website. SSA then creates a user’s account based on this
information. SSA provides the user with account information and
conducts a walkthrough of the Government-to-Government Services
website as necessary. Established organizations submit Form SSA-159
to register additional users as well. The requesting organization
can also modify its online account (e.g., address change) by
completing an online Form SSA-160 (Government-to-Government Service
Online Website Account Modification/Deletion Form). Respondents are
State and local government agencies and some private sector
business entities.
When we last cleared this IC in
2019, the burden was 391. However, we are currently reporting a
burden of 447 hours. This change stems from an increase in the
number of responses from 1,561 to 1,784. 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.
