§ 416.1906 When your authorization is in effect.

Your authorization for us to withhold your SSI benefit payment, to repay the State for interim assistance the State gives you, is effective when we receive it, or (if our agreement with the State allows) when we receive notice from the State that it has received your authorization.

(b) We make a final determination on your claim (if your SSI claim is denied, the denial is the final determination, unless you file a timely appeal as described in subpart N of this part); (c) You and the State agree to terminate your authorization; or (d) If earlier than the event in paragraph (a), (b), or (c) of this section, the date (if any) specified in your authorization.
