SSI is wage replacement funds provided by the Federal Government to the aged, blind or disabled who have very limited income and who are unable to work for at least 12 continuous months. Claimants may receive compensation from a personal injury claim and SSI together but only if their income and resources remain below the allowable SSI limit.
