The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program provides monthly payments to people who are 65 and older, and to adults and children with disabilities who have low income and few resources. SSI is a critical program for veterans, people struggling with homelessness, mental illness, and other challenges.
We’ve made it easier for adults to apply for SSI. We’ve expanded our online disability application to include a streamlined version of the initial SSI application.
This is the first phase of a multi-year effort to simplify the application process and improve access for people who may be eligible for disability. For more information, visit our blog.
