20 CFR 416.904 : Employees' Benefits (§ 1.1 To Parts 1011-1099) — (Part 400 To Part 499) — Social Security Administration (Part 400 To Part 499) — Supplemental Security Income For The Aged, Blind, And Disabled (§ 416.101 To § 416.2227) — Determining Disability And Blindness (§ 416.901 To § 416.999D) — Determinations (§ 416.903 To § 416.904) — Determinations by other organizations and agencies.

A decision by any nongovernmental agency or any other governmental agency about whether you are disabled or blind is based on its rules and is not our decision about whether you are disabled or blind. We must make a disability or blindness determination based on social security law. Therefore, a determination made by another agency that you are disabled or blind is not binding on us.
