Ticket to Work: If you are eligible for the Ticket to Work program, you should have gotten a “ticket” in the mail. If you think you’re eligible but never got a ticket, or if you lost your ticket, call the Ticket Call Center at 1-866-968-7842 or 1-866-833-2967 (TTY).
You can use your ticket to access employment support services at an Employment Network (EN) or from Vocational Rehabilitation Services. Both agencies can help you apply for, prepare for, and find a job. To find an EN in your area, use the Employment Network Directory.
Plan to Achieve Self-Support (PASS): To apply for PASS, you will need to fill out a PASS application. The application is extensive; we recommend that you follow up with a PASS Cadre for assistance.
Individual Development Accounts (IDA): For Minnesota residents, the best place to look for an IDA program is the Family Assets for Independence in Minnesota (FAIM) program.
ABLE Accounts: Compare details about the available ABLE programs at the National ABLE Resource Center.
Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC): Publication 596 is a comprehensive guide to the EITC, providing information on program rules, eligibility, qualifying children and other related topics. You can use the IRS EITC Assistant to help figure out whether or not you qualify for an EITC.
Student Earned Income Exclusion (SEIE): For general information on the SEIE, start at Social Security's website.
