The Social Security disability work incentive "Social Security PASS Plan" gives you additional $100s/month over your current (SSDI) Social Security disability benefits or SSI disability checks, to use for school funds, starting a business, or just so you can go back to work. See our home page.
Social Security Disability Benefit Amounts
If you do not feel as familiar with Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), Supplemental Security Income (SSI disability benefit) and Medicare, as you should be, I would recommend you at least check out the Social Security benefits listed in the Redbook link. Knowledge = Opportunity! Then register with us, we'll help you understand all the work incentives.
New disability benefit amounts for 2010:
- 2010 SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance)- TWP $720/month, SGA $1000/month (remember TWP is a knowledge number not a limit)
- 2010 SSI benefit payment - individual $674/month; couple $1011/month; SEIE monthly $1640/month, yearly $6600
Do not forget that the Social Security PASS plan is a work incentive that can give you hundreds of dollars per month, in addition, to what you already receive from your Social Security disability benefits.
NOW That IS A WORK Incentive!!!

Some people get Medicaid, which is a SSI benefit, mixed up with Medicare. The federal government and Social Security administers Medicare and you will have a red, white, and blue card. You always have the same one and the rules are the same in every state.
Medicaid is a SSI benefit. Medicaid and SSI are operated by the state and the rules are different in each state. The maximum SSI benefit from the federal government is $674/month, but some states do supplement this SSI benefit amount. Medicaid is for those disabled who have little income and resources. You can have both SSI and SSDI, in that case Medicaid would pay your Medicare premium for you.
The Social Security Disability "PASS Plan" is a work incentive that very few people know about. I have worked as a Social Security Benefits Planner in the State of Iowa for years and I want you to check out what Social Security has not been telling you. I want to spread the word! HELP ME!
We hope you will register and fill out the questionnaire. We have more then just Social Security links available, we offer many additional links to grants and financial aid for people with disabilities and much more.
You will want to go to Vocational Rehabilitation & Workforce pages to get their funding first, before you use your Social Security PASS Plan fund to purchase your needs. Your Social Security disability benefits from the PASS Plan can then be used to pay for the items the others didn't.
Check out these Disability Resource links: Jobs, School grants, Self-Employment, Housing, Assistive devices, Legal Aid, and much more.
