TICKET TO WORK
Social Security's Ticket to Work Program supports career development for Social Security disability beneficiaries age 18 through 64 who want to work. The Ticket Program is free and voluntary. The Ticket Program helps people with disabilities progress toward financial independence. Both SSI and SSDI recipients are eligible for the Ticket to Work Program.
​
The Ticket Program and other Work Incentives allow you to keep your benefits while you explore employment, receive vocational rehabilitation services, and gain work experience. Your cash benefits and Medicaid or Medicare often continue throughout your transition to work, and there are protections in place to help you return to benefits if you are unable to continue working due to your disability.
