Youth who initially become eligible for Supplemental Security Income under the definition of disability for children must have their eligibility redetermined upon attaining age 18, using the definition of disability for adults. Based on 8 years of administrative data from the Social Security Administration, this article provides statistics on the average age-18 redetermination outcomes over time by various individual characteristics. We find little change in the initial cessation rate for all groups over time, although there are large differences in initial cessation rates between disability type and other characteristics. The majority of redeterminations result in initial continuances. The article also examines data on individuals who successfully appeal an initial cessation determination and/or who successfully reapply for payments after losing eligibility. Many youth initially found not to meet the definition of disability for adults successfully appeal that decision, and a nontrivial number who lost eligibility successfully reapply at a later date.
最初根据儿童残疾定义符合补充保障收入资格的青年，在年满18岁时必须根据成人残疾定义重新确定其资格。基于社会保障管理局8年的行政数据，本文提供了按各种个人特征随时间变化的18岁重新确定资格结果的统计数据。我们发现，随着时间的推移，所有群体的初始停止率变化不大，尽管残疾类型和其他特征之间的初始停止率存在很大差异。大多数重新确定资格的结果是初始延续。本文还研究了成功对初始停止决定提出上诉和/或在失去资格后成功重新申请付款的个人的数据。许多最初被认定不符合成人残疾定义的青年成功地对该决定提出了上诉，还有相当数量失去资格的人在以后成功地重新申请。
