SSA-2007-0068 SSA Revisions to Rules on Representation of Parties Rulemaking 2024-05-29T07:31:31Z 0b00006480277eb0 0960-AG56 We are proposing several revisions to our rules on representation of parties in parts 404, 408, 416, and 422 to reflect changes in representatives’ business practices, beneficiaries’ use of the Internet, and to become more efficient in processing claims for benefits. These rules propose to: • Recognize entities as representatives; • Mandate the use of Form SSA-1696 to appoint a representative or revoke or withdraw an appointment of a representative; • Mandate the use of Form SSA-1696 to waive a fee or direct payment of the fee; • Define the roles of a principal representative and a professional representative; • Require professional representatives to use our electronic services as they become available; • Authorize principal representatives to sign and file a claim for benefits for a claimant with us; • Require professional representatives to submit certain requests for reconsideration and hearings before an administrative law judge electronically; • Require a representative to keep paper copies of certain documents that we may require; • Add new definitions or revise existing definitions for: “disqualify,” “electronic media,” “Federal agency,” “Federal program,” “fee petition,” “initial disability claim,” “person,” “principal representative,” “professional representative,” and “representative;” and • Change references in the representative sanctions rules to recognize a new delegation of authority and a recent agency reorganization.
