When determining the effects of a
child’s impairment(s), SSA obtains information about the child’s
functioning from teachers, parents, and others who have the
opportunity to observe the child on a daily basis. SSA uses Forms
SSA-5665-BK and SSA-5666 to make one-time requests for teacher
reports; results of formal testing; therapy progress notes;
individualized education programs; and other records of a child’s
educational aptitude and achievement. Forms SSA-5665-BK and
SSA-5666 are available electronically to school and training
program administrators on SSA’s website. State Disability
Determination Services (DDS) or SSA may send a request for
completion of the SSA-5665-BK to a child’s local school
administrative office or training program, which refers the request
to the child’s teacher(s), who then accesses the form through the
link. The teacher(s) forwards the completed SSA-5665-BK to the
school’s or training program’s administrative office, which uploads
it to SSA’s Electronic Records Express (ERE) system. The DDS or SSA
may send a request for completion of the SSA 5666 and copies of the
child’s school records to the central or local administrative
school office, depending on which office maintains the child’s
individual academic records. The administrative office or training
program can also upload the child’s records via ERE. Although the
SSA-5665-BK and SSA 5666 are available for online completion, some
teachers and school personnel may print and manually complete the
forms, then fax or mail them to the requesting DDS or SSA office.
Respondents are teachers and other education personnel.

When we last cleared this IC in
2017, the burden was 251,178 hours. However, we are currently
reporting a burden of 209,952 hours. This change stems from a
decrease in the number of responses from 404,564 to 337,725. 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.
