How Much Money Can I Have and Still Get SSI?

SSI generally limits countable resources for an individual and a couple. Exact limits and exclusions change over time — confirm current rules and what SSA counts in your case.

Countable vs excluded

Some resources may be excluded. Bank accounts are often counted.

Why balances matter

Going over the limit — even briefly — can affect eligibility or create an overpayment.
