Social Security Disability benefits or SSD (Title II Benefits) are based on the amount that a person has paid into Social Security through their work. To qualify for these benefits, you must have worked at least 5 out of the last 10 years.
SSI is awarded to disabled individuals who do not have sufficient work credits to receive SSD benefits and are based on the person's income and resources.
The Social Security Administration has strict qualifications when determining disability, also known as "listings". They consider the severity and duration of your medical conditions. They also review your prognosis and limitations.
