Requesting Party’s Responsibilities. The Requesting Party agrees to create electronic file(s) to be used to test an SSA developed web service. The Requesting Party may be asked to process SSA generated test data when required. All requests will conform to the submission requirements outlined in the ETE documentation which the Requesting Party will have access to upon successful registration for access to the ETE. The Requesting Party agrees to provide the name, phone number, email address, and timeframe for testing. Further, the Requesting Party agrees to notify SSA if there is any change to employment status (including but not limited to, for example, long-term absence, termination of employment, change of duties relevant to ETE) for any ETSSAD authorized to use ETE. The Requesting Party will also notify SSA if they wish to revoke any employee’s authorization to use SSA’s ETE. The registration process will be completed by issuance of a unique access code by SSA to the Requesting Party. The Requesting Party is required to provide this code to the ETSSAD as authentication of the employee’s relationship to the Requesting Party as well as being authorized by the Requesting Party to submit such requests. SSA may change its method of receiving verification requests and providing the results to the Requesting Party at any time. The Requesting Party shall be responsible for any costs generated by SSA's decision to change its method of using the ETE.
Requesting Party’s Responsibilities. The Requesting Party agrees to provide SSA with an electronic file through the CBSV website on Business Services Online (BSO) either in batch mode format for response in two to three business days or as a single request for real-time response.

The Requesting Party’s Responsible Company Official will also notify SSA if they wish to revoke any employee’s authorization to use SSA’s CBSV. The registration process will be completed by issuance of a unique access code by SSA to the Responsible Company Official. The Responsible Company Official is required to provide this code to the Authorized User as authentication of the employee’s relationship to the Requesting Party as well as being authorized by the Requesting Party to submit such requests. SSA may change its method of receiving verification requests and providing the results to the Requesting Party at any time.
