Helping Me, That's HNB

Qualifying Applying Denied Disability FAQs

SUPPORT FOR YOUR SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME (SSI) APPLICATION

You haven’t been able to work much for a long time—and severe health problems rule out working now. But you still need to pay for food, a place to live and other essentials.

Disability benefits from Supplemental Security Income (SSI) could provide the financial relief you’re looking for and bring more peace to your life.

SSI benefits come with monthly checks and qualify you for Medicaid coverage to take care of your medical conditions.

But when most people apply for SSI disability income, they get denied.

The Social Security Administration runs SSI benefits and has thousands of rules about who gets help. For SSI, you must be unable to work, you must have limited financial resources—and you have to prove it.

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed facing this big government program.

The lawyers at Horenstein, Nicholson & Blumenthal are here to answer your SSI questions and provide SSI help.

WHAT DO YOU GET WITH SSI DISABILITY IN OHIO?

When you qualify for SSI benefits, you automatically qualify for Medicaid health coverage.

And you qualify for monthly payments to help with basic expenses.

The amounts change every year. In 2025, Social Security set these maximum SSI disability income amounts:

$967 for an individual
$1,450 for a couple

The idea of Supplemental Security Income is to help you when you can’t work because of bad health, so working and earning a substantial income disqualifies you for benefits.

If you work a little bit and your pay is below a certain level, you could still receive SSI payments at a reduced amount.

Besides working-age people who are unable to work, SSI benefits are available to children with disabilities from families that qualify, people over 65 who meet the financial requirements, even without disabilities, and people living with blindness.

HOW DO I QUALIFY FOR SSI HELP?

To receive SSI benefits, you must meet these qualifications:

Your physical or mental health problems make working impossible.
You haven’t worked much in recent years.
Your income and your assets—like property and savings—fall below certain amounts.

If you do have a substantial recent work history, Social Security has a different disability program for you: Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI).

SSDI doesn’t have income limits like Supplemental Security Income. You become eligible for SSDI when you work and pay enough into the Social Security system through payroll taxes.

When you apply for SSI help, you’ll need to submit evidence proving that you qualify for benefits, including medical records from treatment you’ve received for your impairments and details of your past jobs, income, savings and property.

The attorneys at HNB can help you gather all the documents you need and build a strong case for benefits.

We’ll take time to listen to your SSI questions. As you apply for SSI disability in Ohio, we’ll make sure you’re treated with dignity and respect.

This isn’t something you should have to deal with on your own. You deserve support when you’re going through something hard.
