  Question
  How do I obtain the Social Security Administration's (SSA's) authorization to charge and collect a fee for my work on a case?
  Answer
 

To obtain SSA's authorization, the representative must use one of two, mutually exclusive fee authorization processes --- the fee petition or the fee agreement process.  Generally, the choice of which process to use is the representative's and the claimant's.  For more information about these fee processes, go to "Overview of Representatives' Fees".
