I'm sorry Ginnie, but I'm afraid you are mistaken on that issue. I understand it can be confusing because your case involved issues with both SSDI and SSI. The names are the same for both programs in all states. SSDI involves having recent enough work quarters in and total disability. SSI is for low income people with total disability. SSI is the one with a $2000 asset cap for a single person.
I wouldn't want Soccertese, who may end up with SSI as his only option, or other readers to get mixed up on this issue.
