When SSA determines that 1) claimants for initial disability payments do not actually have a disability or 2) current records indicate the disability recipients' disability ceased, SSA notifies the disability claimants or recipients of this decision. In response to this notice, the affected claimants and disability recipients have the following recourse: 1) they may request a disability hearing to contest SSA's decision and 2) they may submit additional information or evidence for SSA to consider. Disability claimants, recipients, and their representatives use Form SSA-765, the Response to Notice of Revised Determination, to accomplish these two actions. The respondents are disability claimants, current disability recipients, or their representatives.
US Code:
42 USC 405

When we last cleared this IC in 2019, the burden was 963 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 26 hours. This change stems a decrease increase in the number of responses from 1,925 to 963. This decrease stems from fewer respondents completing Form SSA-765. 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. These figures represent current Management Information data.
* Note: The total burden reflected in ROCIS is 2,695, while the burden cited in the attached Supporting Statement is 26. This discrepancy is because the ROCIS burden reflects the following components: field office waiting time + a rough estimate of a
30-minute, one-way, drive burden. In contrast, the chart in #12 of the Supporting Statement reflects actual burden.
