Income and Resource Limits for Disability and SSI Payments

A large number of parents are confused and concerned about SSI Disability Payments for special needs kids. Coachella Valley healthcare and insurance and Coachella Valley disability attorneys are good sources for current information on this very subject. It is important to understand that the government sets down certain rules that are required for the child to be eligible for SSI. Often, this is a very complicated and frustrating process that requires clarification.

Income/Resource Limits

First, it is important to review income requirements. Does your child have any type of income? Certainly, this should include all the money earned in the home. The fact is that if the child does not meet those income limits, he or she might be denied. Furthermore, the government will look to determine if the child matches other important requirements to get SSI payments. For example:

  • Income less than $1,900
  • A mental or physical condition
  • Disabled status

The SSI might request more information from all the child’s doctors or therapists. It also will request that the parents submit any type of medical records that they might have on their child’s disability. Next, the government gathers together the information and processes it at the agency. Generally, the entire process takes about several months to complete.

However, there are a few cases that might speed up the qualifying process. Don’t hesitate to contact Coachella Valley healthcare and insurance attorney or Coachella Valley disability attorney for help with getting your SSI payments.
