Ssa 1372 Form PDF Details

The Social Security Administration's Form SSA-1372-BK-FC plays a critical role in determining the continuation of benefits for children beneficiaries as they approach the age of majority. This document is essential for those who, upon turning 18, might still be eligible for benefits either as full-time students in an elementary or secondary-level school, or due to a qualifying disability. The form consists of several parts, designed to gather comprehensive information about the student's school attendance, plans for future schooling, any existing disabilities, marital status, and even work history outside the United States. For students studying outside the U.S., the completion and certification of this form by their educational institution are necessary to prevent the automatic cessation of their Social Security benefits. Moreover, it outlines the steps and documentation required to apply for childhood disability benefits, signifying the form’s crucial role in ensuring ongoing support for eligible beneficiaries. The SSA-1372 form also includes provisions for students and school officials to notify the Social Security Administration of any change in the student's educational status, further emphasizing the importance of accurate and timely information in maintaining benefit eligibility.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THIS FORM

This form contains the name, date of birth and U.S. Social Security claim number of a child beneficiary who tells us that he/ she is (or will be when school resumes) a full-time student at your school. One of the conditions a child between 18 and 19 must meet to receive Social Security Benefits is that he/she be a full-time student.

Full-Time Attendance

For Social Security purposes, a student is one who is attending an elementary or secondary-level school, and is enrolled in a day or evening non-correspondence course of at least 13 weeks in duration. The attendance must be at grade/year 12 or lower. In addition, the student must be scheduled to attend at the rate of at least 20 hours weekly, and be carrying a subject load which is considered full-time for day students under the school's standards and practices. If there is any question as to whether the student's attendance is full or part-time, please apply your school's usual criteria.

What to Report

Please hold this form until the student is no longer a full-time student at your school (whether this is during the current school year, at the start of the next school year, or any time after that). Then, enter the date he/she stopped being a full- time student, check the appropriate box above and return the completed form to the Social Security office shown above or your Federal Benefits Unit. For a list of Federal Benefits Units, visit www.socialsecurity.gov/foreign/foreign.htm.

You should not return the form to report that attendance stopped for a scheduled break (e.g., summer break) unless you do not expect the student to return after the break. You should report if the student stops attending school full-time, or graduates, earlier than the date shown above.

The people in the above offices will be glad to help you with any questions concerning this form or any other questions you have about Social Security.

Thank you for your cooperation.

STUDENT SHOULD KEEP THIS INFORMATION FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

 

INFORMATION ABOUT BENEFITS PAST AGE 18

If you qualify for Social Security benefits because you are a full-time student, you can start receiving benefits as early as age 18 and usually through the month you graduate from the 12th grade, or the month before you become age 19, whichever is earlier. Your benefits will be paid in your own name beginning at age 18, either by direct deposit or by mail. Generally, we consider you to be a full-time student if you are in full-time attendance at a school that provides education at the secondary (grade 12) level or below. Full-time attendance means you are scheduled to attend classes at the rate of 20 hours each week, or at the rate determined by your school to be full-time (if higher).

INFORMATION ABOUT BENEFITS PAST AGE 19

Your benefits may continue past age 19 if you are in actual full-time attendance at a school that provides elementary or secondary education in the month you become age 19. If the school operates on a yearly basis, then payment may be continued after age 19 up through the earlier of (1) the month you complete the course in which you are enrolled full-time or (2) the second month after the month you become age 19. If the school requires re-enrollment on other than a yearly basis, benefits may continue through the month ending the term that is in progress when you become age 19. Note that payments beyond age 19 cannot be made if you become age 19 in a month of nonattendance (for example, you become age 19 in a month when you are on summer vacation).

IMPORTANT RESPONSIBILITIES

YOU MUST NOTIFY THE SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION PROMPTLY IF:

YOU MARRY

YOU STOP ATTENDING SCHOOL

YOU REDUCE YOUR SCHOOL ATTENDANCE BELOW FULL-TIME

YOU CHANGE SCHOOLS

YOUR EMPLOYER PAYS YOU TO ATTEND SCHOOL (either at his request or as a requirement of employment)

AN UNSATISFIED WARRANT, OVER 30 DAYS OLD, WAS ISSUED FOR YOUR ARREST BECAUSE YOU WERE CHARGED WITH A CRIME THAT CARRIES A PENALTY OF DEATH OR CONFINEMENT OVER ONE YEAR, OR BECAUSE YOU VIOLATED A CONDITION OF FEDERAL OR STATE PROBATION OR PAROLE.

Your benefits may end if any of the above occur. You must report each of these events even if you believe your benefit should not end. We will tell you about how your benefits may be affected.

YOU MUST ALSO NOTIFY THE SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION PROMPTLY IF:

YOU MOVE OR CHANGE YOUR MAILING ADDRESS

YOU WORK IN EMPLOYMENT OR SELF-EMPLOYMENT

When you are awarded Social Security benefits as a student, you will receive a booklet that further covers your responsibilities. It is important for you to read that booklet.

HOW WORK OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES AFFECTS YOUR BENEFITS

If your earnings are not subject to U.S. Social Security taxes, a 45-hour test applies. Under this test, if you are employed (or self-employed) for more than 45 hours in a month, you are not eligible to receive a benefit for that month. How much you earn and how many days you work in a month does not matter. A person is employed if he/she performs services for someone else and receives cash payment or other compensation for these services. This includes part-time work, and work as an apprentice.

Failure to report employment in the United States or outside the United States can result in the loss of additional benefits.
