SSA collects information on Form SSA437 to investigate and formally resolve complaints of discrimination based on disability, race, color, national origin (including limited English proficiency), sex, sexual orientation, age, religion, or retaliation for having participated in a proceeding under this administrative complaint process in connection with an SSA program or activity. SSA also requests the information from the SSA-437 to review, investigate and decide complaints alleging discrimination on the basis of status as a parent in education, training programs, or activities conducted by SSA. Individuals who believe SSA discriminated against them on any of the above bases may file a written complaint of discrimination. SSA uses the information to identify the complainant; identify the alleged discriminatory act; ascertain the date of such alleged act; obtain the identity of any individual(s) with information about the alleged discrimination; and ascertain other relevant information that would assist in the investigation and resolution of the complaint. Respondents are individuals who believe SSA or SSA employees, contractors or agents in programs or activities conducted by SSA discriminated against them.
