Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) helps Americans who cannot work because of medical conditions. This program provides financial support to those in need. In this article, we will explain how SSDI works, the payment dates for July 2024, and who is eligible.
What is SSDI?
SSDI stands for Social Security Disability Insurance. It is a program run by the US government to help people who can’t work due to medical conditions. If you are partially or fully disabled, SSDI can provide financial assistance. This program is not directly funded by the government but through taxes taken from people’s salaries. These taxes go into the Social Security system, which includes SSDI. People with low income who cannot work due to disabilities can receive help from this program.

People who qualify for SSDI will receive different amounts based on their disability and income. Payments range from $100 to $3,822. There are also work incentives for those who wish to work again. These incentives can go up to $1,110 without affecting your SSDI benefits. For blind individuals, this amount can be up to $2,590.
