# §416.267. General.


We determine whether the special SSI eligibility status applies to you by verifying that you continue to be blind or have a disabling impairment by applying the rules in [subpart I](/cfr/20/subpartI.md) of this part, and by following the rules in this subpart to determine whether you meet the requirements in [§ 416.265(b)](/cfr/20/416.265.md?p=b). If you do not meet these requirements we determine that the special eligibility status does not apply. If you meet these requirements, then we apply special rules to determine if you meet the requirements of § [416.265 (c)](/cfr/20/416.265.md?p=c) and [(d)](/cfr/20/416.265.md?p=d). If for the period being evaluated, you meet all of the requirements in [§ 416.265](/cfr/20/416.265.md) we determine that the special status applies to you.
