The information collected on Forms SSA-1372-BK and SSA-1372-BK-FC is needed to determine whether children of an insured worker are eligible for student benefits. The data allows SSA to determine student entitlement and whether entitlement will end. The respondents are student claimants for Social Security benefits, their respective schools and, in some cases, their representative payees.
The burden decrease is due to a correction we are making to the burden data. We realized that we have been double counting the burden indicating it would take 11 minutes for both the student and the school office to complete the form, whereas it takes a total of 11 minutes - 8 minutes for the student and 3 minutes for the school official to review the students work, sign the form and file it. Please see the justification in the documents section of this ICR for additional information.
