Supplemental Security Income ("SSI") benefits are different than Social Security Disability ("SSD") benefits. SSI benefits are designed to be a "supplement" to SSD benefits, if your monthly SSD benefit is a low amount of money. In order to be eligible for SSI benefits you must be disabled, but you must also qualify financially by not having significant assets (a cabin, snowmobiles, a boat) or money (more than $2000 saved in the bank).
SSI benefits are for disabled individuals who have never worked or they are for children with a severe disability. You or your child may qualify for Supplemental Security Income benefits. You may also qualify for SSI benefits if you have worked, but have earned a low income. In order to win SSI benefits, you must be disabled and you must also meet SSA's income and asset requirements
