<h3>EXPEDITED PAYMENTS </h3><br />
|
||
|
||
|
||
<p>We can start payments more quickly than usual in four different types of situations:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />presumptive disability (PD) or presumptive blindness (PB) payment;</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />emergency advance payment;</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />immediate payment; and</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />expedited reinstatement cases.</p></ul>
|
||
|
||
<h4>PRESUMPTIVE DISABILITY OR BLINDNESS PAYMENTS</h4>
|
||
<p>If your claim is for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits for disability or blindness, we may make presumptive disability (PD) or presumptive blindness (PB) payments for up to 6 months while you are waiting for the <a href="text-disable-ussi.htm#decide" onMouseOver="a('WHO DECIDES IF I AM DISABLED OR BLIND?');return true" onMouseOut="b()">Disability Determination Services (DDS)</a> to make a final decision. Our decision to grant PD or PB payments is based on the severity of your condition, the evidence available at the time, and the high likelihood that your claim will be ultimately approved, and is not based on your financial need.

|
||
|
||
|
||
<h4 class="bluetitle">WHAT HAPPENS TO PRESUMPTIVE DISABILITY OR BLINDNESS PAYMENTS IF WE LATER DENY YOUR SSI?</h4>
|
||
<p>We do not ask you to repay these PD or PB payments, even if you are later found not to be disabled or blind. However, if you received an <a href="text-overpay-ussi.htm" onMouseOver="a('OVERPAYMENTS');return true" onMouseOut="b()">overpayment</a> for other reasons, (for example, excess income, SGA, or resources), we may ask you to repay some of the PD or PB payments.</p>
|
||
<h4><span class="bluetitle">EMERGENCY ADVANCE PAYMENT </span><br />
|
||
|
||
</h4>
|
||
<p>We may be able to make an emergency advance payment to new claimants who face a financial emergency and who are due SSI benefits that are delayed or not received. We can only pay one such advance payment. The maximum emergency advance payment you may receive is the smallest of:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul><p><img src="images/ball80.gif" width="20" height="10" border="0" alt="small blue and black arrow" />the SSI Federal benefit rate (plus any federally administered State supplement);</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball80.gif" width="20" height="10" border="0" alt="small blue and black arrow" />the total amount of the benefits due; or</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball80.gif" width="20" height="10" border="0" alt="small blue and black arrow" />the amount requested for the financial emergency.</p></ul>
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<p><strong>WHO CAN RECEIVE AN EMERGENCY ADVANCE PAYMENT? </strong></p>
|
||
<p>People who:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />Are due SSI benefits (including PD or PB payments) that are delayed or not received.</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />Are facing a "financial emergency", which means they need money right away due to a threat to health or safety, such as not enough money for food, clothing, shelter, or medical care.</p>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h4 class="bluetitle">HOW DO WE RECOVER AN EMERGENCY ADVANCE PAYMENT?</h4>
|
||
<p>We will subtract the emergency advance payment from the payments already due you and pay you the difference. If you are not due past payments, we will subtract the emergency advance payment from your current monthly benefits in up to 6 monthly installments.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4><span class="bluetitle">IMMEDIATE PAYMENT</span></h4>
|
||
<p>We may be able to make an immediate payment to new claimants and those already receiving SSI whose benefits are delayed or not received and who face a financial emergency.
|
||
The immediate payment cannot be higher than $999.00.</p>
|
||
<h4 class="bluetitle">WHO CAN RECEIVE AN IMMEDIATE PAYMENT?</h4>
|
||
<p>People who:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />Are initially applying for SSI benefits, or already receiving benefits.</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />Are due SSI benefits (including PD or PB payments) that are delayed or not received.</p>

|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h4 class="bluetitle">HOW DO WE RECOVER AN IMMEDIATE PAYMENT?</h4>
|
||
<p>We will subtract the immediate payment from the first regular payment due to you.</p>

<h4><span class="bluetitle" id="expedited">EXPEDITED REINSTATEMENT</span> (EXR)</h4>
|
||
<p>If your benefits terminated because of excess earned income or a combination of earned and unearned income, you can request to have your benefits started again without having to complete a new application. We call this process “expedited reinstatement.” </p>
|
||
|
||
<p>You can request that your benefits start again if you:<br />
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />Are unable to work at the SGA level due to your medical condition.</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />Are unable or become unable to perform <a href="text-disable-ussi.htm#sgact" onMouseOver="a('Substantial Gainful Activity');return true" onMouseOut="b()">substantial gainful activity</a> in the month of the EXR request.</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />Have a current impairment(s) that is the same as, or related to, your original disabling impairment(s).</p>
|
||
<p><img src="images/ball71.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="small blue ball" />Request EXR within five years from the month your benefits stopped.</p>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>In order to reinstate your benefits under this provision we need updated medical information for the DDS to make their determination. A Social Secuirty representative will assist you with all the necessary forms. If we approve your request for expedited reinstatement of your SSI benefits, your provisional (temporary) benefits will begin the month after your request. You may be eligible for Medicaid coverage.</p>
|
||
<p>We can give you provisional benefits for up to 6 months while we determine whether you can get benefits again. These benefits include Federal payments and Medicaid coverage.</p>
|
||
<p>If we decide that you cannot get benefits again, we usually will not ask you to repay the provisional benefits.</p><br />
