SSI - Overview - Iowa

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a Federal benefit program available to individuals who have limited income and resources and who have a disability that prevents them from engaging in Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA).

SSI has a number of work incentives available to SSI recipients. See SSI Work Incentives for information about the:

·           Student Earned Income Exclusion (SEIE),

·           Impairment-Related Work Expenses (IRWE),

·           Blind Work Expenses (BWE),

·           Cash Benefits when earning over SGA [1619(a)], Medicaid when no cash benefits [1619(b)], and

·           Plans for Achieving Self Support (PASS).

Within the Iowa Benefit Information System is a wealth of additional information about health benefits for those who would be able to receive SSI benefits (and the Medicaid benefits that go along with SSI eligibility) except for excess income or other reasons.
