How much do you get for disability if you are outside the United States? I get about 14k a year.

I don’t want to specify but with rental assistance I have enough to get by, even enough to make substantial credit card payments. I’m going to get food stamps even though I can do without them. I recently got hooked on premium movie channels and that’ll be an extra $15 a month.

UK here. £30k a year in disability benefits and housing benefit. I know this sounds impertinent but £20k it is. It’s £1590 a 4/week month in disability benefits! I can afford 3 abroad holidays a year. I also get free health care, free meds, free dental care, free bus pass I can travel all over England. Plus I get support staff paid by social services at - 21 one-to-one hours a week = £18k a year for support. Or personal assistants they are. They support me to live independently in the community.

I get around 1650€ a month on disability which is around $1750.

Also we get in May holiday money to be able to pay for a holiday. It’s €800-900€.

In the past I’ve gotten more and less depending on circumstances. The least I’ve gotten was 1200€ and the most was 2100€ a month. So, I’m somewhere in the middle right now,

Bellow 1k plus rent is increasing every couple of years. Gotta scoundrel land owner who performs zero maintenance never replaces anything nor fixes a thing but loves his coin so much that I believe it’s pretty much illegal for him to abandon his property this much. Need to call someone and report his bum.

Other than that it’s nice to see winter months some increase in payment since my studio is bleeding heat.

I get $2100 a month in the U.S.

I am not on government benefits though. I was out of the country in Canada for 9 years and wasn’t able to work long enough to meet the necessary work quarter requirements to qualify for SSDI. Have too many assets to qualify for SSI. Not a lot, and mostly locked in retirement accounts, but it counts as assets.

I am on disability through my last employer’s long term disability insurance policy. Tried going back to work to get off it, but failed miserably.

Am on the insurance until I qualify for government social security payments. I’m not sure of the age.

I actually would have qualified for my employers disability scheme if I hadn’t resigned myself.

Well we all make mistakes.

I still have food on the table and a roof above my head.

So there is that.

Around £13000 a year, I have to find a part time role soon as London is not made for me.

I hope you find a job that works out. I know you have put a lot of effort in the past in finding a suitable job.

I don’t know how the Government expects someone to live on £13K in London!?

I get 15.500 dkr. 1 u’s dollars is equal to 7 dkrs. So that maked 2.200 is dollars. And if you have privat pension so iif you pay 10.000 u’s dollars what i do you get a raise in your pension of 2.600 kr. (350 u’s dollars) so that make 2650 u’s dollars. Them I get housing supports that is 2500 dkrs (400 u’s dollars) so that makes 2950 dollars. If you want you Can even get the State to sponsor your expensive branded drugs
for 75 us dollars like Latuda - Caripiprazin - brecpiprazole that cost about 1300 us dollars.
So if you have private pensions for over 1000.000 kr
You are called pensions millionær.

I was going to go on the cpp ltd but it was only 680 a month when i was unwell in 2021. Thats just jokes to live on.
If it was 3000 a month id probably of done it.
