How It Works

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is an insurance program that supports individuals who have a qualifying work history and a medically recognized disability. Here’s the simple breakdown:

  • Insurance Program: SSDI is part of Social Security, funded by payroll taxes you’ve paid over the years.
  • Qualifying Work Credits: You need to have worked at least 5 of the last 10 years to earn enough credits.
  • Application Process: Provide medical documentation and evidence of how your condition affects your ability to work.
  • Approval & Benefits: Once approved, you may receive monthly payments to help cover living expenses.

Age Advantage

SSDI rules become more favorable as applicants get older. Here’s how:

Ages 50–54

May qualify even with a sedentary work capacity.

Ages 55–59

May qualify even with a light work capacity.

Ages 60–64

May qualify even with a medium work capacity.
