To be considered eligible for SSI benefits, the Social Security Administration (SSA) has several requirements. You may be qualified to receive benefits if you’re:
When you apply, Tennessee Disability Determination Services (DDS) reviews your application to determine if you’re eligible to receive benefits. It often takes months for DDS to issue a decision, and a mistake or omission during the application process can cause further delays.
The process of applying for SSI benefits can be both difficult and time-consuming. Many SSI claims are initially denied because the burden of proof is on the applicant. You will need to prove that you are 1. disabled and 2. in financial need. Failing to prove one of the two can cause your application for Supplemental Security Income to be denied.
