Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income differ, as SSDI is for people who are disabled and have a qualifying work history. The average monthly payment is $1,223 and the maximum, based on work history, is $3,345.
Disability insurance recipients may also qualify for SSI if they have limited resources or income and can prove a work history, the administration states.

Applicants for SSDI must submit medical records to be eligible for disability benefits. A disability is defined by the administration as something that inhibits one’s ability to carry out job responsibilities and the length of time in which the disability has affected the candidate. Therefore, those with short-term or partial disabilities are not qualified for SSDI benefits.
