Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a needs-based program for disabled individuals with limited income and resources. Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is an insurance program funded by your past contributions through payroll taxes. Eligibility for SSDI depends on your work history and disability, not just your financial need.
The amount of SSDI benefits paid varies significantly based on your individual earnings history and the amount of Social Security taxes you paid during your working years. It is not a fixed amount. Your specific benefit calculation is determined by the Social Security Administration based on your earnings record.
The Ticket to Work program is designed to help SSDI and SSI recipients return to work. While it offers resources and incentives, it's essential to understand the specific rules and timelines. We advise clients on how to best utilize these programs without jeopardizing their current benefits.
