When processing cessation determinations for a common issue concurrent Title II/Title
XVI case, the due process requirements for the Title XVI case also apply to the Title
II case. A reconsideration (pre-hearing) is the initial appeal step for both determinations.
If the individual's request for appeal and SBC is within 10 days of receipt of the
due process notice, payments are continued until the Disability Determination Services
(DDS) hearing officer issues an appeals decision. Alternatively, the individual may
waive SBC.
NOTE: In “common issue” cases, it is not necessary for the onset or ending dates in the
two determinations to coincide. See DI 12045.005, Claims Under Different Titles – Common Issue – General.
