DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

The Department of Commerce will 

submit to the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) for clearance the 

following proposal for collection of 

information under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

chapter 35). 

Agency: U.S. Census Bureau. 

Title: SSA Supplement on Retirement, 

Pensions, and Related Content. 

OMB Control Number: None. 

Form Number(s): SIPP–SSA(L1)2014. 

Type of Request: New collection. 

Number of Respondents: 73,500. 

Average Hours per Response: 30 

minutes. 

Burden Hours: 36,750. 

Needs and Uses: The U.S. Census 

Bureau requests authorization from the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) to conduct the SSA Supplement 

on Retirement, Pensions, and Related 

Content (SSA Supplement) for the 

Social Security Administration (SSA). 

The Census Bureau and the SSA entered 

into an Interagency Agreement (IAA) in 

May 2010 that states the Census Bureau 

will conduct for the SSA a survey to 

collect data on retirement, pensions, 

marital history, and disabilities as a 

supplement to the 2014 Survey of 

Income and Program Participation 

(SIPP) Panel, and process the data. That 

original agreement was renewed each 

year by IAA modifications from 2011 to 

2014. 

The data topics included in the SSA 

Supplement were previously collected 

in topical modules in the former SIPP 

Panels. These data were excluded from 

the 2014 SIPP data collection design as 

they were not required in each wave of 

data collection, and their elimination 

from the core interview reduced 

recurring respondent burden during the 

revised annual SIPP interview. To 

continue to have data for incorporation 

into their programmatic evaluations, the 

SSA has requested that the Census 

Bureau conduct the SSA Supplement 

beginning in September 2014. SSA 

specifically requested that the interview 

follow-up interviewed Wave 1 SIPP 

respondents, necessitating it’s fielding 

after the completion of the 2014 SIPP 

Wave 1 interview. This differs from the 

topical module concept in previous 

SIPP panels where the topical modules 

were administered in conjunction with 

the core SIPP interview. The SSA 

Supplement will be conducted about 4 

months following the completion of the 

2014 SIPP Panel Wave 1 data collection. 

The time from the 2014 SIPP Wave 1 

interview to the SSA Supplement 

interview may be as long as 8 months 

or as short as 4 months. The SSA 

Supplement is designed to occur only 

once during the 2014 SIPP Panel. 

The main objective of the SSA 

Supplement is to provide the SSA with 

detailed information about personal 

retirement plans (e.g., Individual 

Retirement Accounts (IRAs), Keogh 

accounts, 401k, 403b, 503b, and thrift 

plans); participation in pension and 

retirement plans provided by an 

employer or business; current and 

previous marital status; self-designation 

of health status; work disability; and 

adult and child disability. These data 

are collected from SIPP interviewed 

Wave 1 respondents, and along with 

data collected in the 2014 Panel SIPP 

interviews, will allow the SSA to create 

a picture of the economic and social 

situation of people with disabilities 

and/or those in or approaching 

retirement. The SSA also needs to 

estimate those legally eligible for Old 

Age Survivors and Disability Insurance 

(OASDI) divorce benefits, that is, 120 

months of marriage before divorce to an 

entitled worker. This information assists 

the SSA in making informed decisions 

about policies and programs that will 

affect older and/or disabled Americans. 

The SSA bases two of its major policy 

micro-simulations on the SIPP: (1) 

Modeling Income in the Near Term 

(MINT) for evaluating Social Security 

reform; and, (2) the Financial Eligibility 

Model (FEM) for evaluating 

Supplemental Security Income (SSI), 

Qualified Medicare Beneficiary, and 

Medicare Part-D Low Income Subsidy 

(LIS) programs. 

MINT projects the economic and 

demographic condition of older 

Americans based on data developed by 

SSA and the Census Bureau. MINT is 

continually updated using data from 

current SIPP panels. SSA uses MINT to 

simulate the impact of legislative 

changes to OASDI. The MINT estimates 

are relied upon by the Office of 

Management and Budget, the Council of 

Economic Advisors, the Congress, the 

Governmental Accountability Office, 

and the SSA. MINT is also used to 

estimate economic well-being indicators 

of older Americans in future years. Of 

specific importance to the SSA is the 

impact of the legislative changes on the 

economic well-being of future 

beneficiaries. The SSA also assesses 

people’s ability to save for retirement 

(including the behavior of people 

putting money into and taking money 

out of retirement accounts), marital 

histories of the population, and 

eligibility for OASDI survivor and 

retirement benefits. 

The FEM assists policy makers in 

evaluating the effectiveness of the SSI 

program. Information from SIPP is 

matched to SSA administrative data to 

model SSI eligibility and participation 

and to study eligibility for Medicare 

buy-in programs and the LIS under 

Medicare Part-D. Information on 

disability and work limitations are used 

to estimate whether an individual meets 

the disability criteria for SSI eligibility 

and if the criteria need to be modified. 

Since the 1996 SIPP panel, the SSA 

has used data collected by the SIPP for 

policy evaluation research and the 

modification of government programs. 

Prior to the 2014 SIPP redesign, the data 

came from core questions asked each 

Wave and from intermittent topical 

supplements. As part of an effort to 

streamline the annual data collection in 

the SIPP instrument, the redesigned 

SIPP does not include some topical data 

previously used by the SSA for the 

MINT and FEM models.
