This brief explanation of benefits may help you better understand who is eligible for SSD or SSI. You may be entitled to receive full or partial pay, reimbursement for medical expenses, or payments for a disability resulting from a work-related injury. Please contact the Dan Davis Law Firm for more specific answers in your case.

Major types of Social Security disability benefits:

Disability Insurance Benefits — For individuals who have worked in five of the last 10 years who become disabled.

Disabled Widow's and Widower's Benefits — For individuals aged at least 50 who become disabled within a certain amount of time after the death of a spouse insured under Social Security.

Disabled Adult Child Benefits — For the children of persons who are deceased or who are drawing Social Security disability or retirement benefits. (The child must have become disabled before age 22.)

Supplemental Security Income Benefits — For individuals who are poor and/or have not paid Social Security tax via payroll deduction and who become disabled. There is an SSI child's disability benefits program for children under the age of 18 who are disabled.

Working part time or occasionally will not automatically disqualify you from receiving Social Security disability benefits. You may receive SSD or SSI benefits and still qualify for others, such as long-term disability insurance and veterans benefits.
