How to Obtain Benefits

The Social Security Administration offers two programs through which you can obtain disability benefits: Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Each program has different eligibility requirements.

SSDI is available to individuals under the age of 65 who have paid into Social Security and meet the required number of “work credits.”

SSI is available to low-income individuals with few resources who do not qualify for SSDI. The SSI program is more focused on financial need rather than your work history. To be eligible for SSI, you must have less than $2,000 in assets (or less than $3,000 for couples).

Medical Requirements & Defining Disability

Both SSDI and SSI have medical requirements. For an injury to be considered a disability, it must be severe and directly interfere with the person’s ability to work. It must also be long-term, lasting at least one year or be expected to result in the person’s death.
