What is Work Incentives Planning and Assistance (WIPA)  

The goal of the WIPA program is to help people who receive SSI or SSDI make informed choices about work, and to support people who are working to increase their financial independence. Each WIPA project has Community Work Incentives Coordinators who:  

• provide in-depth counseling about benefits and the effect of work on those benefits;   
• conduct outreach to people who receive SSI and SSDI (and their families) who might be eligible to participate in Federal or State work incentives programs; and
• work in cooperation with Federal, State, private agencies and nonprofit organizations that serve people who receive SSI and SSDI.

Who is Eligible? ​

Anyone who receives Social Security disability benefits (SSI/SSDI) between age 14 and retirement age. Priority is given to anyone who: 

• is working, 
• has a job offer pending, 
• has had an interview in the past 30 days or an interview scheduled in the next 2 weeks
• is a veteran, or 
• is a transition youth between the ages of 14-25 and interested in working

If you meet these requirements you are eligible to get FREE benefits planning services.
