Many Americans with disabilities rely on monthly SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) checks to help cover their living expenses. These benefits, managed by the Social Security Administration (SSA), provide crucial support. Let’s explore the SSDI payments for July 2024 and what you need to know.
SSDI helps people who cannot work due to disabilities. It also supports families when the main earner dies. The SSA manages these benefits, which help millions of Americans.
Disability: You must have a condition that stops you from working for at least a year or could lead to death.
Work History: You must have paid payroll taxes.
Additional Income: SSDI might not cover all expenses, so looking for extra income sources is a good idea.
SSDI and SSI
Some people might also qualify for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) along with SSDI. These programs have different goals but similar eligibility requirements. You don’t need separate applications for both, and SSI benefits are limited by your monthly income.
SSDI checks provide vital financial support to disabled Americans. By understanding the eligibility requirements and payment schedule, you can better manage your finances. Always check your My Social Security Account for the latest information on your benefits.
