Social Security Disability Insurance (CFDA 96.001) shows $27,052,245,632 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to California, across 5,139 awards. This page joins that SSA catalog program to California place-of-performance. It is not a count of California SSDI beneficiaries, not a Trust Fund statement, and not an outlay conversion. USAspending.gov is the source table.

Key figures

  • CFDA 96.001 × California records $27,052,245,632 in USAspending obligations.
  • 5,139 awards underlie that sum; the mean is about $5.26 million per record, not a typical check.
  • Matching SSDI to California is not causation and not a beneficiary census.
  • Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

Disability insurance meeting California in the award file

CFDA 96.001 is Social Security Disability Insurance. California (CA) is the geography tag. Together they produce $27,052,245,632 and 5,139 records. A 96.001 award tagged to Nevada or Oregon is excluded. A California retirement-insurance, survivors-insurance, SNAP, or VA row is a different CFDA. This page does not add those programs to the SSDI cell.

Five thousand one hundred thirty-nine awards against $27,052,245,632 yields a mean of about $5,263,134 per record. That mean is not a typical monthly SSDI check. Large assistance vehicles and modifications can dominate dollars. This packet does not list beneficiaries, DDS offices, or hearing offices.

Sacramento did not cause $27,052,245,632 by appearing as a state code. Correlation is not causation. Social Security Disability Insurance in California is the live overlay.

What CFDA 96.001 reports without becoming a caseload

SpendingVault does not grade California’s disability determination backlog. $27,052,245,632 is an obligation sum, not a caseload. CFDA 96.001 is the national hub without the California filter. This packet has no national SSDI total, so none is quoted.

SSA statistical supplements that count disabled workers by state are a different series. They are not the 5,139 USAspending.gov awards. Mixing a beneficiary count from those files with this join would invent a per-person dollar figure the packet does not support.

No. It is an award-row count. $27,052,245,632 ÷ 5,139 is about $5.26 million per record as a mean, not a typical monthly check. Beneficiary statistics live in other SSA publications.
