What's The Most That A Husband On SSDI Could Receive In Order For His Wife To Keep SSI?

What's the amount a husband can make on ssdi in order for his. Wife to keep SSI

Hi,

Assuming they live together, the husband's SSDI would likely need to be under around $1,100+ in order for his wife to potentially still qualify for SSI (Supplemental Security Income). There are many variables involved in determining SSI eligibility and rates, however, so you would need to check with Social Security to be sure.

Best, Jerry
