Social Security Disability Insurance
If you are unable to work because you are experiencing a disabling condition, you may be eligible for financial help from the Social Security Administration (SSA). The SSA has two different programs to assist those unable to work – Supplemental Security Income and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). Both of these programs allow qualifying claimants to receive disability benefits each month.
SSDI is available for those who were able to work in the past but are now finding they can’t work for at least twelve months because they are experiencing a disabling condition. Once approved for SSDI, the monthly benefit can be used to help with daily living needs. This includes things like rent, medical expenses (like doctors visits, medications, etc.), utilities, etc.
