SSI

In addition to administering the Retirement, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (RSDI) Program, the Social Security Administration also administers the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Program which is funded under Title XVI of the Social Security Act. SSI is funded by general tax revenues (not social security taxes). This program replaced state programs of Aid to the Aged, Blind, and Disabled and is designed to help aged, blind and disabled individuals who have little or no income by providing cash payments to meet basic living needs.

 

SDX

The Social Security Administration has developed a comprehensive system, known as the SSI/State Data Exchange (SDX), for providing states with information about aged, blind, and disabled persons who apply for or receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI). The SDX record consists of SSI eligibility and payment data collected by the Social Security Administration. The information available on the SDX can be used to determine eligibility for CCAP, LIHEAP, Medicaid, SNAP, and TANF.

 

The SDX is an on-line inquiry of almost all individuals in North Dakota who have formally applied for SSI. This information is displayed on the SDX1/SDX2 Inquiry Screen (Function 17 on INME in TECS) or on the second page of the TPQY Inquiry Screen (Function 28 on INME in TECS).

 

Individuals are not deleted from the SDX. The state agency always receives the last known information on almost any North Dakota resident who ever applied for SSI and were either denied, received benefits at one time or are currently receiving an SSI benefit. The state agency receives daily files that are processed on the 1st and the 10th of every month which generate the following alerts.
