Because the SSA has stringent criteria for SSDI coverage, many applications are denied.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While SSI is more related to your financial resources, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aarp.org\/retirement\/social-security\/questions-answers\/can-you-get-both-ssdi-and-ssi.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AARP explains<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, \u201cSSDI provides payments to disabled people regardless of their financial situation.\u201d Rather, qualification for SSDI is dependent on how many years you worked in the U.S., as well as having a medical condition that keeps you from working.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Can a Person Qualify for Both SSI and SSDI Benefits?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain individuals are eligible for both SSI and SSDI benefits. In fact, the SSA uses the term \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssa.gov\/redbook\/eng\/supportsexample.htm#:~:text=Many%20individuals%20are%20eligible%20for,for%20benefits%20under%20both%20programs.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">concurrent<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d to describe those people who qualify for both benefits at the same time. However, if you receive both SSI and SSDI, it is very likely that one of the payments will be reduced or offset by the other.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most important thing to remember about combining SSI and SSDI benefits is what the SSA refers to as \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssa.gov\/oact\/cola\/countableincome.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">countable income<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u201d Importantly, you are not eligible for SSI benefits if your countable income exceeds a certain amount. Since the SSA considers SSDI benefits as countable income, receiving monthly benefits beyond a certain total can cause you to lose out on SSI.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the event you are eligible for both types of coverage, the amount of money awarded each month in SSDI benefits will offset what you receive in SSI. Basically, the more you are paid each month in SSDI, the less you will be paid in SSI.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>How Do I Apply for SSI or SSDI?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Applications for both SSI and SSDI coverage are done with the SSA.

Please note, there are often several steps to the application process.
