That's why many people on SSI are married and one of them has a part time job.. or a single person on SSI may work a little bit. Supplemental Security Income, not Total Income.

The earned income disregard for SSI is $65 per month. After that, SSI stops supplementing $1 for every $2 in gross wages. In other words, earn gross pay of $265 and SSI is $100 less than someone with no earnings. The supplement is reduced.
