Frequently Asked Questions


1) Will the cost of installation and equipment be covered by my disability in Mississippi?

Since SSI is a needs-based program as well as an SSI recipient must have limited income and resources, qualification for the Plan for Achieving Self-Support (PASS) allows a person with a disability to attain an occupational objective. The cash that's set aside under a PASS can be used for anything that results in an occupational objective and may be used to cover house alterations through an SSI savings strategy. You'll find out more about PASS through your local Social Security Administration office or call toll free 800 772 1213.
