Sec. 416.335   Filing in or after the month you meet the requirements 
for eligibility.

    When you file an application in the month that you meet all the 
other requirements for eligibility, the earliest month for which we can 
pay you benefits is the month following the month you filed the 
application. If you file an application after the month you first meet 
all the other requirements for eligibility, we cannot pay you for the 
month in which your application is filed or any months before that 
month. See Sec. Sec. 416.340, 416.345 and 416.350 on how a written 
statement or an oral inquiry made before the filing of the application 
form may affect the filing date of the application.
