What’s The Difference Between Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) And Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Benefits?
Social Security Disability is based on some of the money that was withheld from your paychecks or that you paid into the Social Security system while you worked. In order to be eligible for SSDI, you need to have worked enough and paid enough into the Social Security system. Supplemental Security Income is a need-based program. To be eligible for SSI, you have to be needy from a financial standpoint. In addition to meeting these eligibility requirements, you must also show that you are disabled or unable to work.
When Should I Apply For Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Benefits?
We recommend starting the application process as soon as possible so that you are not losing any potential benefits. Anyone may apply for Supplemental Security Income and the application is free of charge. Call Proctor & Kole today if you would like more information on applying for Supplemental Security Income.
