Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) are both federal programs that provide cash payments to people who meet the federal definition of disabled.. But the similarities between the two programs end there. Here are the three main differences between them. SSI Is a Means-Tested Program, SSDI Is an Entitlement Program. Although both SSI and SSDI are administered by the Social Security Administration, the two programs have vastly different financial requirements.
But since writing the book, Iâve discovered two new terrible gotchas when it comes to the Social Security system. One involves children that are disabled before age 22 who earn even a bit too much money after age 22 and then file for disability on their own work record. The money they âearnedâ may actually be provided by family members or friends who are trying to give the child a stronger sense of self worth.
