What is the Ticket to Work program? The Ticket to Work Program gives many people receiving Social Security benefits more choices for receiving employment services. Under this program, most recipients become eligible for the Ticket to Work Program when they begin receiving SSDI or SSI benefits based on disability. By assigning their ticket to an Employment Network (EN) or Vocational Rehabilitation Agency (VR) of their choice, recipients can choose to obtain the support services necessary to achieve a vocational (goal) objective. If the ticket is approved, the EN or VR will coordinate and provide useful services to help the recipient find and maintain employment. What is the goal of the Ticket to Work Program? The ultimate goal of the Ticket to Work program is to assist people in reducing their reliance on the disability benefits they receive from Social Security, by promoting increased self-sufficiency and greater independence through work. Who can use this program? The Ticket to Work program is for individuals between the ages of 18-64 who receive an SSDI and/or SSI check. We’d love to help determine your eligibility. Contact us! What if I’m not comfortable giving you my Social Security information? Your concern is valid. By calling the SSA Ticket to Work helpline at 1-866-968-7842, you will reach the Social Security Program Manager for the TTW program. Our DUNS/PID number is 963890111, and the Program Manager will be happy to verify that we have an active contract with the Social Security Administration and are an approved Employment Network. Will I lose my Medicaid/Medicare eligibility if I participate in the program? No. You will continue to remain eligible for the same medical coverage if you continue to receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefit payments. Should you begin to earn enough that you stop receiving SSDI payments, there are also work incentives that allow you to continue your medical coverage. If you receive medical coverage through Medicaid/Medicare presently, your eligibility for coverage can continue for at least 93 months after the last month of your Trial Work Period. What happens if my benefits stop due to my earnings, and I can no longer work due to my disability? You can request that your benefits start again if your benefits ended because you worked and had earnings, without having to complete a new application. Provisional (temporary) benefits for up to six months can be given by the Social Security Administration (SSA) while they determine whether you can get benefits again, because of a work incentive called Expedited Reinstatement. You can ask for your benefits to begin again using Expedited Reinstatement for up to five years after you stop receiving benefits. Is there ever any cost for your help? No, our services never come with any charge. What is Timely Progress? A Timely Progress Review” refers to the SSA deciding if you are making the expected progress toward your vocational goal.
