Form SSA-820-BK. Work Activity Report (Self-Employed Person)
Form SSA-820-BK, the Work Activity Report (Self-Employed Person), serves as a report for self-employed individuals who receive disability benefits or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). The main purpose is to provide information about the self-employed person's work activities to the Social Security Administration (SSA).
An example scenario is when a self-employed individual who receives disability benefits needs to report their work activities to SSA, ensuring that their income and activities align with eligibility criteria. The benefit is that it allows self-employed individuals to keep SSA informed about their work without affecting their benefits.
The parties involved include the self-employed person and the SSA. The form collects details about the self-employment, including the type of work, income, and hours worked.
