5. Statement of Household Expenses 

and Contributions—20 CFR 416.1130– 

416.1148—0960–0456. SSA bases 

eligibility for SSI on the needs of the 

recipient. In part, we assess need by 

determining the amount of income a 

recipient receives. This income includes 

in-kind support and maintenance in the 

form of food and shelter provided by 

others. SSA uses Form SSA–8011–F3 to 

determine whether the claimant or 

recipient receives in-kind support and 

maintenance. This is necessary to 

determine (1) the claimant or recipient’s 

eligibility for SSI and (2) the SSI 

payment amount. SSA only uses this 

form in cases where SSA needs the 

householder’s (head of household) 

corroboration of in-kind support and 

maintenance. Respondents are 

householders of homes in which an SSI 

applicant or recipient resides.

6. Notification of a Social Security 

Number (SSN) to An Employer for Wage 

Reporting—20 CFR 422.103(a)—0960– 

0778. Individuals applying for 

employment must provide an SSN or 

indicate they have applied for one. 

However, when an individual applies 

for an initial SSN, there is a delay 

between the assignment of the number 

and the delivery of the SSN card. At an 

individual’s request, SSA uses Form 

SSA–132 to send the individual’s SSN 

to an employer. Mailing this 

information to the employer (1) ensures 

the employer has the correct SSN for the 

individual; (2) allows SSA to receive 

correct earnings information for wage 

reporting purposes; and (3) reduces the 

delay in the initial SSN assignment and 

delivery of the SSN information directly 

to the employer. It also enables SSA to 

verify the employer as a safeguard for 

the applicant’s personally identifiable 

information. The majority of individuals 

who take advantage of this option are in 

the United States with exchange visitor 

and student visas; however, we allow 

any applicant for an SSN to use the 

SSA–132. The respondents are 

individuals applying for an initial SSN 

who ask SSA to mail confirmation of 

their application or the SSN to their 

employers.

Abstract of Proposed Collection 

The DS–2029, Application for 

Consular Report of Birth Abroad of a 

Citizen of the United States of America, 

is used by citizens of the United States 

to report the birth of a child while 

overseas. The information collected on 

this form will be used to certify the 

acquisition of U.S. citizenship at birth of 

a person born abroad and can be used 

by that person throughout life. 22 CFR 

§ 50.5–50.7 are important legal 

authorities that permit the Department 

to use this form. 

Methodology 

The DS–2029 is currently available to 

download from the Internet. An 

application for a Consular Report of 

Birth is normally made in the consular 

district in which the birth occurred. The 

parent respondents will complete the 

form and present it to a United States 

Consulate or Embassy, who will 

examine the documentation and enter 

the information provided into the 

Department of State American Citizen 

Services (ACS) electronic database.
