Question:

Answer:
-
All of the SOAR Critical Components and techniques learned in the SOAR Online Course can be used for any SSI/SSDI application. However, in order to indicate to SSA/DDS that it is a "SOAR" claim, the applicant must be experiencing or at risk of homelessness, as defined here.
Further, you want to be sure that you are following any additional steps as required by your State or community’s established SOAR process.
