applicants pass an examination testing
their knowledge of the relevant
provisions of the Act and the most
recent developments in Agency and
court decisions affecting titles II and
XVI of the Act. With the assistance of
contractor personnel, we will develop a
40- to 50-question, multiple choice
examination. Examination details are as
follows:
• A score of 70 will be a passing
score;
• The examination instrument will be
written in the English language only;
• We anticipate that the examination
will be administered by the contractor
and will be given only once, on a
weekday, in association with each
application period;
• During the examination, test-takers
will have open-book access to certain
reference materials that we will supply
(see below for details);
• The examination will be based
upon situations that arise from the
subject areas contained in the reference
materials; and
• Applicants will not be permitted to
remove the examination instrument
from the examination center.
Open-book reference materials: We
will provide each test-taker with a copy
of 20 CFR Ch. III (most recent edition),
and the Compilation of the Social
Security Laws, Volume 1 (most recent
edition). We may provide additional
materials; if so, we will provide details
about the materials on the contractor’s
Web site. Applicants will not be
permitted to bring any other items
(including reference materials) to the
examination center.
An applicant who fails to achieve a
passing score may re-apply to
participate in the demonstration project
during a subsequent application period.
