What is the difference between SSI and Social Security benefits?
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is a government insurance fund that is typically paid to a young person with a disability who has a retired, deceased, or disabled parent who paid into Social Security. Social security benefits are applied for in the same way as SSI, may amount to more than SSI, or may be supplemented by SSI, if they are less than the SSI amount.
