What is the age 18 redetermination process when dealing with Social Security
When youth who have been receiving SSI benefits as children reach age 18, they must be reevaluated to determine whether they meet SSA's medical and nonmedical eligibility criteria for adults. This process – referred to as “redetermination” – is essential for youth who will continue to need SSI support into adulthood.
