This schedule reflects the effects of the Administration’s
proposal to impose a user fee on attorneys for Social Security
claimants. This monetary assessment would be imposed only
if the claimant being represented is awarded past due benefits
and a fee for representation is processed by the Agency and
paid to the attorney directly. An assessment would not be
imposed if the representative does not charge a fee for services. The purpose of the fee is to cover the administrative
costs SSA incurs when performing this service for attorneys.
Language will be provided to the appropriations and authorizing committees.
This schedule also reflects the program effects of the Administration’s proposal to eliminate Social Security wage credits for non-monetary compensation to military personnel.
This schedule also reflects the program effects of an extension of the Disability Insurance program demonstration
project authority.
This schedule also reflects the program effects of proposals
to improve SSA’s access to information on imprisonment or
death and increase penalties for fraud.
This schedule also reflects the program effects of a proposal
to increase flexibility in Medicaid.
This schedule also reflects the program effects of a proposal
to prohibit work activity from triggering a continuing disability review in the first 24 months an individual is eligible
for DI benefits.
