SSI is a needs-based program for individuals with limited income and resources who are disabled, blind, or age 65+. SSDI is an insurance program for those who have worked and paid Social Security taxes. Your SSDI benefit amount is based on your earnings history, not your current financial situation. Understanding this distinction is crucial for your application.
The amount of SSDI benefits you receive is calculated based on your average lifetime earnings. The Social Security Administration uses your work record to determine your monthly payment. There are federal maximums and minimums for these benefits. To get an accurate idea of what you might receive, a professional can help analyze your earnings history.
