How Much Will I Receive For SSI?
How much will I receive for SSi. I turned 53 receiving DISABILITY benefits.
Hi,
SSI is the abbreviation commonly used for Supplemental Security Income, which is a needs based benefit administered by the Social Security Administration. The amount of SSI benefits for which a person can qualify depends on their other income (if any), but the current maximum monthly SSI payment is $783.
On the other hand, if you're referring to Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits those benefit rates vary depending on a person's earnings history. There is no set limit on the monthly SSDI rate for which a person could qualify, and benefit rates can be as high as around $3,000 monthly if the disabled individual had very high earnings.
Regardless of which type of benefit you're getting, though, I would need much more information about your work history or current income to be able to give you an idea of how much you could be due.
Best, Jerry
