SSA bases an SSI claimant or recipient’s eligibility on need, as measured by the amount of income an individual receives. Per our calculations, income includes other people providing in-kind support and maintenance in the form of food and shelter to SSI applicants or recipients. SSA uses Forms SSA-5062 and SSA-L5063 to obtain statements about food or shelter provided to SSI claimants or recipients. SSA uses this information to determine whether food or shelters are bona fide loans or income for SSI purposes. This determination may affect claimants’ or recipients’ eligibility for SSI as well as the amounts of their SSI payments. The respondents are claimants and recipients for SSI payments, and individuals who provide loans of food or shelter to them.

When we last cleared this collection in 2015, the burden was 23,168 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 20,420 hours. This change stems from a decrease in the number of responses from 139,000 to 122,528. 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.
