SSD Claims
Social Security disability (SSD) benefits are available to qualified individuals who have worked for at least 10 years.
- You can file an SSD claim on the day that you become disabled. You should not delay in filing your claim - a delay of months or years may disqualify you
- You do not have to be permanently disabled to file an SSD claim. As long as your disability prevents you from working, you may be qualified
- The Social Security Administration reviews your medical records as well as your work history, age and education
SSI Claims
If you have a very limited income, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) may be an option for you.
- SSI provides money to meet the basic needs of food, clothing and shelter
- SSI benefits are not based on your needs or your work history
- To qualify for SSI benefits, your monthly income cannot exceed a preset amount. If your income is too high, you will not qualify for SSI benefits
