Disability Benefits in Utah
Types of Disability Benefits Available in Utah
Disability benefits provide crucial financial assistance to individuals who are unable to work due to a physical or mental condition. These benefits are designed to support you during challenging times, helping to cover essential expenses like medical bills, housing, and daily living costs. At Giles Disability Law, we specialize in helping Utah residents access the benefits they need, including Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI).
Understanding the types of benefits you may qualify for is the first step in securing the assistance you need. Here are the primary programs:
- Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): SSDI is available to individuals who have worked and paid Social Security taxes for a sufficient period. It provides monthly payments to those whose disabilities prevent them from continuing employment. Your work history and the severity of your condition determine your eligibility.
- Supplemental Security Income Disability (SSI): SSI is a needs-based program designed to assist individuals with limited income and resources. It is particularly helpful for those who may not have enough work history to qualify for SSDI.
