Section 388-449-0150. When does my eligibility for aged, blind, or disabled (ABD) cash benefits end?  


Latest version.
  • (1) The maximum period of eligibility for ABD cash is twenty-four months before we must review additional medical evidence. If you remain on ABD cash at the end of the twenty-four month period, we determine your eligibility using current medical evidence.
    (2) If your application for SSI is denied:
    (a) We review your eligibility for the ABD cash program;
    (b) We stop your benefits if you do not provide proof you have filed an appeal with SSA within sixty days of a SSI denial for not being disabled.
    (3) We stop your benefits after the final decision on your application for SSI/SSA benefits or if you fail to follow through with any part of the SSI/SSA application or appeals process.
