How does SSA let people receiving Social Security disability benefits know about the Ticket program?
When a person is determined eligible for SSDI and/or SSI benefits, she/he will receive a paper Ticket in the mail that is accompanied by a letter from SSA explaining the Ticket to Work program. However, a beneficiary does not need the paper Ticket to participate in the program. MAXIMUS, the Operations Support Manager for the Ticket program, has information on all the beneficiaries who have received Tickets and maintains a list of beneficiaries with Tickets eligible for assignment. To find out if you are Ticket-eligible, to request a replacement Ticket, or to find out is your Ticket is available for assignment, call MAXIMUS at 866-968-7842 (voice), 866-833-2967 (TTY). More information about the Ticket program specifically for people receiving Social Security disability benefits can be found in the For People Receiving Social Security Disability Benefits section of Frequently Asked Questions.
