Form SSA-821-BK. Work Activity Report

Form SSA-821-BK, the Work Activity Report, is used to report work activities for individuals who receive Social Security disability benefits or SSI. The main purpose is to inform SSA about any work-related changes that may affect the recipient's eligibility and benefit amount.

An example scenario is when an individual receiving disability benefits or SSI returns to work or experiences changes in their work activities. Reporting this information is crucial to ensure that benefits are accurately adjusted based on the individual's work status. The benefit is that it allows recipients to continue receiving benefits while working and reporting changes.

The parties involved are the beneficiary and the SSA. The form collects information about the work activities, earnings, and other relevant details that may impact benefit calculations.
