| Field Op 2003-30: Review (of legal immigrants on EAEDC) for SSI Eligibility Certain EAEDC elderly recipients (age 65 or older) may now be eligible and must reapply for SSI benefits because of a change in their noncitizen status or more up-to-date information on their work history. They were initially denied SSI because of their noncitizen status. Some of these recipients may also be disabled with a disability expected to last 12 months or more. In addition to reducing Department costs, encouraging applicants/recipients to apply for and follow through with the SSI process ensures a greater cash benefit for the recipient once the SSI is approved. | 10/9/2003 | ||

In May 2004, the Department stopped the automated closings of these AUs in order to implement a warning notice informing these AUs about the potential closing before it took place. | 4/22/2005 | ||
