Adult Claims
Eligibility is for those who don't have enough work credit to qualify for a DI claim, or as a supplement if your DI benefit amount is low.
The amount of your monthly benefit is based on you (and your spouse's) income and assets. The levels for both are very strict, and many people do not qualify unless they are at poverty level. The current maximum monthly benefit is just over $600 per month. Your benefits start the month you filed your application. There are no past owed benefits for any month prior to your application.
