Increase to the Representative Fee Agreement Cap
Date:
Dear Colleague,
Today, we announced that, effective this Fall, the Social Security Administration plans to raise the fee cap for claimants' representatives, from $7,200 to $9,200, when they and their client agree to use what is known as a "fee agreement process."
The agency also plans to tie future fee cap increases to the annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA).
Please read our press release for details.
Sincerely,
Dawn Bystry
Associate Commissioner
Office of Strategic and Digital Communications
