Social Security Disability (SSD or SSDI) insurance pays monthly cash benefits to people who have paid enough FICA taxes to qualify, and are now unable to work for a year or more because of a disability. After a waiting period, SSDI eligibility also allows you to receive Medicare benefits — even if you are under age 65.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) pays monthly cash benefits to people who are age 65 or older, those who are blind, or those who have a disability and who do not own much property or have a lot of income. The standard of disability is the same as with Social Security Disability (SSD), however, to qualify for Supplemental Security Income a financial need threshold must also be met. You may be eligible for SSI if you do not qualify for SSDI or the amount of SSDI you will receive puts you below a certain financial standard.
