SSI stands for Supplemental Security Income. Social Security administers this program.
They pay monthly benefits to people with limited income and resources who are disabled, blind, or age 65 or older.
Blind or disabled children may also get SSI.

Social Security benefits come from a fund that is created by the taxes paid into the system. SSI benefits, on the other hand, come from the U.S. Treasury's general funds.
The major difference SSI and Disability payments is that SSI determination is based on age/disability and limited income and resources, whereas SSDI determination is based on disability and work credits.
In addition, in most states, an SSI recipient will automatically qualify for health care coverage through Medicaid.
To find out if you're eligible for increased SSI payments the social security administration will need to compare how much money you earned the year before your disability began and how much you earn or are earning now after you've received disability payments.
The amount of money you'll be able to receive will depend on how much your earnings are and if you qualify.
There's no guarantee that you'll increase your SSI benefits.
