Social Security Administration Announces Limited Pilot for Online SSI Applications

From Justice in Aging

"The Social Security Administration (SSA) recently announced steps the agency is taking to establish a simplified online application process for people applying for Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

SSA will test online SSI “iClaim” applications with a very limited group of applicants who are also applying for Social Security and SSI, with the goal of making iClaim available to all SSI applicants in late 2025. In the meantime, nearly all SSI applicants must continue using paper applications.

Advocates can submit comments to SSA on its efforts to develop online SSI applications; comments are due September 26, 2024."
