8) How does reinstatement work? SSA will fully reinstate your benefits after your reporting. It takes SSA about three months to reinstate your benefits—and you would receive a lump sum payment of the money owed to you for the time after your income dropped below the BEP.

EXPEDITED REINSTATEMENT (EXR) If your benefits terminated because of excess earned income or a combination of earned and unearned income, you can request to have your benefits started again without having to complete a new application.

To request expedited reinstatement, you must fill out a package of forms that vary depending on your circumstances. Forms SSA-371 and SSA-372 are applications to reinstate SSDI and SSI benefits, respectively.

To qualify for expedited reinstatement, you must have stopped working (or stopped working as much) because of the same disability for which you originally received SSDI benefits (or in some cases, a closely related disability). Also, your medical condition must not be better than when you originally applied for SSDI.

If your benefits ended because you worked and had earnings, you can request that your benefits start again without having to complete a new application. While we determine whether you can get benefits again, we can give you provisional (temporary) benefits for up to 6 months.

The expedited reinstatement provision provides you the option of requesting that your prior entitlement to disability benefits be reinstated, rather than filing a new application for a new period of entitlement.

Expedited Reinstatement affords eligible individuals a quick way to re-establish entitlement for Social Security disability benefits after the agency terminated those benefits due to earned income and work activity.
