Plan to Achieve Self Support, also known as a "PASS", is a program offered by the US Social Security Administration (SSA) for disabled or blind individuals who receive or qualify for Supplemental Security Income. The PASS program's main purpose is to help a disabled individual find employment or return to work.[1]
The requirements for a PASS are the following:
- It must be in writing (using the form on the website)
- The planner must already have an income or resources set aside to pay for the plan expenses
- The plan must state a work goal (i.e a vocational assessment of your their skills and how much they want to grow in the next year; must be attainable)
- The plan must have a reasonable time frame with a projected beginning and end, as well as a detailed calendar of your projected goals
- The plan must include detailed expenses of necessities to achieve the work goal.[2]
