Alabama provides State Supplements to Federal SSI benefit payments for residents in one of the living arrangements specified in the table below.
The Social Security Administration (SSA) provided the data shown in the table. Contact your local SSA Claims Representative for further details about eligibility and benefit levels. See the topic "Contacting the Social Security Administration" to find out how to get information or help from SSA.
Notes about specific items, if any, display as colored letters within brackets in the table. Their explanation directly follows the table. You may click on these colored letters within the table to jump immediately to the explanations. Use the Back button in the Help window to return to your place in the table. If additional information is available, it follows after any notes.
Unless otherwise stated, payment levels apply equally to people who are aged, people with blindness, and people with disabilities. Benefit amounts are usually adjusted annually, and become effective January 1st. The table shows monthly payment levels for calendar year 2010.
If you are using this version of WorkWORLD after January 1, 2011, you should contact your County Department of Human Resources for the updated numbers.
