Social security disability, a review of the facts
And while every state has a slightly different resource limit for qualifying for SSI, there are a few general guidelines that a social security lawyer will give you when looking over your application. See below for some of the things that are generally considered a resource, and which will be considered a part of your income. • Coins and Currency • Bank Accounts • Stocks and Bonds • Land, Homes, etc. • Life Insurance • Cars, Trucks, and Other Vehicles • Owned Property Though it is possible to be approved for SSI if you own a vehicle and one home, owning too many assets or "resources" can reduce your chances. In general you must have less than $2000 in the bank for an individual, or $3000 for a couple, to qualify for SSI.
