The maximum SSI payment is $637 a month. I don't know if that is in addition to SSD payments or includes SSD payments.
As an example let's say your SSD payment was $400, would you get and additional $637 to toal $1,037 or would it be the maximum of $637. Some states, like CA, add an additional amount of money to the maximum SSI payment. It depends on where yoou live.
