Open enrollment
The Ticket to Work program helps Social Security disability beneficiaries (SSDI and SSI recipients) explore employment by connecting them with approved Employment Networks and state Vocational Rehabilitation agencies that provide free career counseling, job placement assistance, and ongoing support services. Participation lets beneficiaries test their ability to work while keeping benefits protections in place during an initial trial period. The program is voluntary and open to beneficiaries between ages 18 and 64.
