Understanding Disability Benefits: SSDI vs. SSI
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI)
Social Security Disability Insurance, or SSDI, provides benefits to those with qualifying work histories who are unable to work due to a disabling condition. Your work history and earnings determine how much you get in cash payments.
The longer you have worked and paid taxes into the Social Security system, the more you may be eligible to receive.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
Supplemental Security Income, or SSI, is a needs-based program that provides benefits to those who are blind, disabled, or over 65 with limited financial resources. Your current living situation determines eligibility and cash payments.
The less you earn and the fewer assets you have, the more you may receive in monthly payments. Some states supplement the federal rate with an additional cash benefit.

Why Disability Claims Get Denied
Most SSDI benefits applications are denied on the first attempt, often because of technicalities. Having an experienced disability lawyer on your side can greatly improve your chances of success, whether on your first application or through the appeals process. Here are some common issues that lead to claim denials:
- The Nature and Extent of Your Disability
If your condition doesn’t meet SSA guidelines or lacks proper documentation, your claim may be denied. - Your Work, Income, or Assets
Earning too much income or a high net worth can disqualify you, especially from SSI. - A Complicated & Time-Sensitive Application Process
Disability claims are often denied due to missing paperwork, incomplete forms, or failing to respond to time-sensitive requests from the SSA. Delays or missed contact attempts can easily derail an otherwise valid claim.
4 Ways To Fight Back If Your Claim Is Denied
If your claim is rejected, you’ll have 60 days to respond with an appeal. Multiple options are available for appealing a claim denial, and your National Disability Alliance attorney will help identify the best path forward. Your next steps may include:
Reconsideration
Submit updated documentation and have your case reviewed again by a different SSA examiner.
Hearing Before an Administrative Law Judge
Present your case to an administrative law judge. This is typically the most successful appeal stage.
Appeals Council Review
If the judge denies your claim, request that a higher-level panel examine your case.
Federal Court Review
As a last resort, your attorney can file a lawsuit in federal court to continue fighting for your rights.
