Historical redistribution under the Social Security Disability Insurance Program.

This study uses Social Security administrative data on historical taxes and benefits by year, age, gender, and race for an ex post analysis of redistribution under the Disability Insurance (DI) program. The relationship between the taxes paid and benefits received to date under the program is described for successive cohorts as a whole and for specific race and gender groups both within cohorts and across time.

Social Security benefits; disability insurance benefits; deductions, reductions, and nonpayments of benefits--SSA. Final rules with comment period.

These regulations amend the existing regulations under which Social Security benefits payable to a disabled worker and his or her family may be reduced because of the worker's concurrent entitlement to workers' compensation benefits. They provide that entitlement to certain other public disability benefits may reduce the disability benefits paid by Social Security; that the reduction applies to the first month of concurrent entitlement regardless of the month in which we are notified of entitlement to the public disability benefit; and that the reduction applies to all months of concurrent entitlement until the disabled worker attains age 65. These regulations also provide that where a public disability law or plan provides for reduction of the public disability benefit on the basis of entitlement to Social Security disability insurance benefits that provision will preclude reduction of the Social Security benefits but only if it was in effect on February 18, 1981. These regulations implement section 2208 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981 (Pub. L. 97-35).

Federal Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability insurance benefits; limitations on benefit payments to prisoners; restrictions on disability determinations for felony-related and prison-related impairments--Social Security Administration. Proposed rules.

These proposed regulations, which are based on Pub. L. 96-473, place certain restrictions on the payment of benefits based on disability and student status to persons who have been convicted of a felony and are imprisoned and restrict the use of certain impairments in determining disability. These proposed rules specify the conditions under which benefits will not be paid to these individuals and how a finding of disability may be affected when an impairment, or the aggravation of a preexisting impairment, arises during the commission of a felony or imprisonment. Before the enactment of Pub. L. 96-473, there were no restrictions upon the payment of benefits or the making of disability determinations for these persons.
