Rhode Island Social Security Disability
What is Supplemental Security Income (SSI)?
The Social Security Administration manages both the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability (SSD) programs. However, Supplemental Security Income, or SSI, is different from Social Security Disability. SSI is paid for through general tax revenues, while SSD is funded by Social Security taxes. Since Supplemental Security Income is funded through general tax revenue and not through Social Security tax, a person may be eligible to receive SSI even though they have not paid enough Social Security tax to get disability insurance. Individuals may be eligible for both Social Security Disability (SSD) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is specifically intended for people who are blind, over 65 years of age, or disabled as determined by SSA standards. Also, children who are either blind or disabled may qualify for SSI. In addition to these requirements, the individual must also have a minimal amount of assets (income and resources).
A person earning too much money or having too high of a value in resources may not be eligible for SSI. If eligible, the SSI program grants individuals with a monthly income up to the maximum federal rate as set forth by the Social Security Administration. This rate may be raised by the State in which the individual resides or reduced because of the individual’s assets. For more information on eligibility requirements for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) see: http://www.ssa.gov/ssi/text-eligibility-ussi.htm.
