As part of SSA’s disability determination process, we use Forms SSA-3375-BK through SSA-3379-BK to request information from a child’s parent or guardian for children applying for Supplemental Security Income (SSI). The five different versions of the form contain questions about the child’s day-to-day functioning appropriate to a particular age group; thus, respondents use only one version of the form for each child. The adjudicative team (disability examiners and medical or psychological consultants) of State disability determination services offices collect the information on the appropriate version of this form (in conjunction with medical and other evidence) to form a complete picture of the children’s ability to function and their impairment-related limitations. The adjudicative team uses the completed profile to determine: (1) if each child’s impairment(s) results in marked and severe functional limitations; and (2) whether each child is disabled. The respondents are parents and guardians of child applicants for SSI.

The decrease in the number of respondents for this collection is due to a decrease in use based on our current case data in the 2015 Annual Report of the Supplemental Security Income Program. SSA did not initiate any program changes that would cause a decrease in respondents.
