Direct Fee Payment for Title II Claimant Representation

The SSA is providing this information to allow attorneys and non-attorneys who qualify for direct fee payment for title II claimant representation to understand their eligibility.

Eligibility for direct fee payment requires that the attorney or non-attorney provide representation to a client claiming benefits under Title II, which includes individuals receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and disability benefits.

Benefits of Direct Fee Payment

Direct fee payment can provide greater financial incentive for attorneys to represent clients who would otherwise not be able to afford legal representation, as it eliminates the need for hourly or flat fees.

Eligibility Requirements

The SSA has established specific eligibility requirements for direct fee payment, including that the attorney or non-attorney must provide representation to a client claiming benefits under Title II and must meet certain income and expense limits.

Publication Details

The SSA published its guidance on direct fee payment in FY2017. The publication is available at the following URL: https://www.ssa.gov/foia/resources/proactivedisclosure/2018/FY%202017%20Attorneys%20and%20Non-Attorneys%20Eligible%20for%20Direct%20Fee%20Payment%20for%20Title%202%20Claimant%20Representation.pdf
