Benefits cannot be authorized unless a valid marriage is established. This is a reinstatement only with no changes. The respondent burden has decreased due to the estimated number of receivables averaged over the past year. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
