  • Answer:

    SSI benefits are only payable---in the most favorable outcome, of course--from the date of an SSI applicant's disability application. SSD, or social security disability, benefits, on the other hand, may be established for a retroactive period of twelve months prior to the date of an application for disability benefits.
