What Is Supplemental Security Income (SSI)?

SSI, like Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), is a federal program that provides financial support to people with disabilities. These benefits come in the form of monthly payments from the Social Security Administration (SSA).

Who Can Get SSI Benefits?

Supplemental Security Income eligibility requirements are slightly different than SSDI requirements. Unlike SSDI, you don’t need a work history to qualify for SSI. Instead, eligibility depends on your financial need and either age or disability status.

To qualify for SSI, you must be disabled, blind, or aged (65 or older). You must also be unable to work and have limited income and resources. Disabled children can also qualify for SSI benefits until age 18.

How Our SSI Disability Lawyers Can Help

Getting approved for SSI benefits can be hard, and many deserving applicants are denied on their first try.

At O’Neil and Bowman Disability Group, our attorneys for SSI disability stand ready to guide you through every step of the process. When you work with us, you’ll speak directly with a lawyer who understands your case. This increases your chances of being approved for benefits.

  • Federal court appeals
