Justification for Non-Substantive Changes for Form SSA-8202
Statement for Determining Continuing Eligibility for Supplemental Security Income Payment
20 CFR 416.204
OMB No. 0960-0145
Background
The agency uses Form SSA-8202 (Statement for Determining Continuing Eligibility for Supplemental Security Income Payment) to review a recipient or couple’s non-medical eligibility factors (i.e., income, resources, and living arrangements) to determine whether the recipient or couple is still eligible for and receiving the correct Supplemental Security Income payment.
Revision to Form SSA-8202:
Change #1: We are revising the language on Page 3 Question 8A.
Current Language: Do you, or your spouse living with you, have any checking, or savings accounts, or any other funds in the bank? Include any accounts where you have direct deposit of any money.
New Language: Do you, or your spouse living with you, have any checking, savings or Achieving A Better Life (ABLE) accounts, or any other funds in the bank? Include any accounts where you have direct deposit or any money.”
Justification #1: We made the revision to align with the ABLE question that the agency added to the SSI claims system.
SSA will implement the changes to the SSA-8202 upon OMB approval.
