The work registration requirement is waived until the Social Security Administration makes an eligibility determination for a household member who is applying jointly for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and food benefits.  When the household member is determined eligible for SSI, he or she becomes exempt from work registration.  If he or she is determined ineligible for SSI, work registration requirements must be met.  If the certification period expires by the end of the month following the month notice of SSI ineligibility is received by the human services center (HSC), the worker applies work registration requirements at the next recertification.  Otherwise, the worker applies work registration requirements within ten calendar days of when the HSC is notified of SSI ineligibility.
