SSA uses Form SSA-372 to: (1) inform
previously entitled beneficiaries of the EXR requirements of SSI
payments under Title XVI of the Act, and (2) to document their
requests for EXR. SSA requires this application for reinstatement
of benefits for respondents to obtain SSI disability payments for
EXR. When an SSA claims representative learns of individuals whose
medical conditions no longer permit them to perform SGA as defined
in the Act, the claims representative gives or mails the paper Form
SSA-372 to the previously entitled individuals (or mails it to
those who request EXR over the phone). SSA employees collect this
information whenever an individual files for EXR benefits. The
respondents are applicants for EXR of SSI disability payments. We
are making one change to the form due to a legislation: On
September 15, 2017, the President signed into law H.R. 624, the
Social Security Number Fraud Prevention Act of 2017, which became
Public Law No. 115-59. The law restricts the inclusion of Social
Security Numbers (SSN) on documents sent by mail by the Federal
Government. Therefore, we updated the form to comply with the new
law to reflect the BNC# in place of the SSN. We reflected this
change in an Addendum. This change does not affect the public
reporting burden.
