Amendments to the Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Program
Document Number: 05-19530
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2005-09-30
Agency: Social Security Administration, Agencies and Commissions
We are proposing to revise our regulations for the Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Program (Ticket to Work program), authorized by the Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act of 1999. The Ticket to Work program provides beneficiaries with disabilities expanded options for access to employment services, vocational rehabilitation services, and other support services. We are proposing to make revisions to the current rules to improve the overall effectiveness of the program in assisting beneficiaries to maximize their economic self-sufficiency through work opportunities. These revisions are based on our vision of the future direction of the Ticket to Work program, our experience using the current rules, and recommendations made by a number of commenters on the program.
Reinstatement of Entitlement to Disability Benefits
Document Number: 05-19529
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-09-30
Agency: Social Security Administration, Agencies and Commissions
We are publishing final rules regarding the Reinstatement of Entitlement (Expedited Reinstatement) provision in section 112 of the Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act of 1999. This provision allows former Social Security disability and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) disability or blindness beneficiaries, whose entitlement or eligibility had been terminated due to their work activity, to have their entitlement or eligibility reinstated in a timely fashion if they become unable to do substantial gainful work. These rules provide beneficiaries an additional incentive to return to work.
