> What's the difference between disability and SSI? I thought they were one and the same.
^^^^^^^^^

"Disability" is the general term pointing to a bunch of help:

1) Private disability insurance (this is what you pay into when you work); transient;
2) State disability (Department of Social Services); this, as the name says, involves the state you live in;
3) TITLE XIX, or MEDICAID; a federally funded service for doctor visits and scripts;
4) Social Security:
a) SS; the "straight" plan for retirement; that which you paid into when you worked; you can tap into these funds prior retirement;
b) SSI; Supplemental Security Income; for people who have no SS and need money; this is a federal "slush" fund

Disability plans from other planets are not accepted at this time.

There's also tons of ways to get "free" money from the Feds is you believe people like Matt Lesko: http://matthew-lesko.com/

Remember: where there's a will, there's a way.
