How Much Income Will I Get for My SSI Benefits in Redlands CA?
The federal government sets the rate for SSI each year and then California supplements what the state has set. In 2019, the monthly SSI rate in California is $931.72. If the disability is based on blindness then the amount is $988.23. Note that not all people will receive this, as some types of income can affect the end SSI benefit amount.
If I Receive SNAP and Other Public Benefits Will It Affect My Approval for SSI Benefits?
When SSI benefits are approved, General Relief will be considered and may reduce the amount of benefits you receive if approved. However, SNAP benefits will not impact the SSI benefit rate. Social Security maintains close contact with each state Department of Social Services so that they will know which public assistant benefits you are receiving.
Can Non-U.S. Citizens Qualify for SSI Benefits in Redlands CA?
Not usually. However, there are a few limited exceptions that can result in a non-citizen being eligible for SSI benefits. If you believe that you have a right to these benefits and are one of the exceptions then we urge you to contact a qualified SSI benefits attorney who can assure you get the right information and guidance.
