SSI VS. SSDI
SSI
According the the Social Security Administration, SSI benefits are cash assistance Social Security Insurance benefits which are paid to older persons (over 65 years old), blind and disabled persons (including children) who have limited income and resources. These benefits are funded by the Federal Government from general tax revenues.
SSDI
Alternatively, SSDI benefits are Social Security Insurance benefits which are paid to disabled or blind workers who have paid in to Social Security through their paycheck contributions and are based on contributions by the earner. FYI, dependents might also be entitled to benefits from the earner's reported contributions..
