| 2020-03199 | Removing Inability To Communicate in English as an Education Category | Rule | We are finalizing our proposed regulations to eliminate the education category "inability to communicate in English" when we evaluate disability claims for adults under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act (the Act). This education category is no longer a useful indicator of an individual's educational attainment or of the vocational impact of an individual's education because of changes in the national workforce since we adopted the current rule more than 40 years ago. We expect that these revisions will help us better assess the vocational impact of education in the disability determination process. | 2020-02-25 | 2020 | 2 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/02/25/2020-03199/removing-inability-to-communicate-in-english-as-an-education-category | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-02-25/pdf/2020-03199.pdf | Social Security Administration | 470 | We are finalizing our proposed regulations to eliminate the education category "inability to communicate in English" when we evaluate disability claims for adults under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act (the Act).
