SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION

[Docket No: SSA-2017-0014]


Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Request

    The Social Security Administration (SSA) publishes a list of 
information collection packages requiring clearance by the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) in compliance with Public Law 104-13, the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, effective October 1, 1995. This notice 
includes one revision of an OMB-approved information collection.
    SSA is soliciting comments on the accuracy of the agency's burden 
estimate; the need for the information; its practical utility; ways to 
enhance its quality, utility, and clarity; and ways to minimize burden 
on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology. Mail, email, or fax your 
comments and recommendations on the information collection(s) to the 
OMB Desk Officer and SSA Reports Clearance Officer at the following 
addresses or fax numbers.

(OMB) Office of Management and Budget, Attn: Desk Officer for SSA, Fax: 
202-395-6974, Email address: [email protected]

(SSA) Social Security Administration, OLCA, Attn: Reports Clearance 
Director, 3100 West High Rise, 6401 Security Blvd., Baltimore, MD 
21235, Fax: 410-966-2830, Email address: [email protected]

    Or you may submit your comments online through www.regulations.gov,

[[Page 15780]]

referencing Docket ID Number [SSA-2017-0014].
    I. The information collection below is pending at SSA. SSA will 
submit it to OMB within 60 days from the date of this notice. To be 
sure we consider your comments, we must receive them no later than May 
30, 2017. Individuals can obtain copies of the collection instrument by 
writing to the above email address.
    Objection to Appearing by Video Teleconferencing; Acknowledgement 
of Receipt (Notice of Hearing); Waiver of Written Notice of Hearing--20 
CFR 404.935, 404.936; 404.938, 404.939, 416.1435, 416.1436, 416.1438, & 
416.1439--0960-0671. SSA uses the information we obtain on Forms HA-55, 
HA-504, HA-504-OP1, and HA-510 to manage the means by which we conduct 
hearings before an administrative law judge (ALJ), and the scheduling 
of hearings with an ALJ. We use the HA-55, Objection to Appearing by 
Video Teleconferencing, and its accompanying cover letter, HA-L2, to 
allow claimants to opt-out of an appearance via video teleconferencing 
(VTC) for their hearing with an ALJ. The HA-L2 explains the good cause 
stipulation for opting out of VTC if the claimant misses their window 
to submit the HA-55, and for verifying a new residence address if the 
claimant moved since submitting their initial hearing request. SSA uses 
the HA-504 and HA-504-OP1, Acknowledgement of Receipt (Notice of 
Hearing), and accompanying cover letter, HA-L83 to: (1) Acknowledge the 
claimants will appear for their hearing with an ALJ; (2) establish the 
time and place of the hearing; and (3) remind claimants to gather 
evidence in support of their claims. The only difference between the 
two versions of the HA-504 is the language used for the selection 
checkboxes as determined by the type of appearance for the hearing (in-
person, phone teleconference, or VTC). In addition, the cover letter, 
HA-L83, explains: (1) The claimants' need to notify SSA of their wish 
to object to the time and place set for the hearing; (2) the good cause 
stipulation for missing the deadline for objecting to the time and 
place of the hearing; and (3) how the claimants can submit, in writing, 
any additional evidence they would like the ALJ to consider, or any 
objections they have on their claims. The HA-510, Waiver of Written 
Notice of Hearing, allows the claimants to waive their right to receive 
the Notice of Hearing as specified in the HA-L83. We typically use this 
form when there is a last minute available opening on an ALJ's 
schedule, so the claimants can fill in the available time slot. If the 
claimants agree to fill the time slot, we ask them to waive their right 
to receive the Notice of Hearing 75 days prior to the scheduled 
hearing. The respondents are applicants for Social Security disability 
payments who request a hearing to appeal an unfavorable entitlement or 
eligibility determination.
    Type of Request: Revision of an OMB-approved information 
collection.
