Connecticut DDS applies SSA’s five-step sequential evaluation. CTDPA consumer rights apply to personal data we collect from Connecticut residents.
What does not change by state
- Work-credit amounts and the 20/40 rule (2026: $1,890 per credit).
- SGA: $1,690/month non-blind; $2,830 if statutorily blind.
- Five-step sequential evaluation and the Blue Book listings.
- Five-month waiting period and 24-month Medicare clock (with statutory exceptions).
- 60-day appeal deadlines.
What does change
DDS staffing, consultative-exam vendors, hearing-office wait times, and which local clinics SSA already knows. Privacy and call-recording rules also vary — see our 50-state privacy policy.
