If you have any questions about SSI feel free to ask. Good luck to you.

This is correct information. If you have not worked much you would not qualify for SSDI. I worked for over 15 years so I did qualify. I used a lawyer and lost. Then I appealed fired my lawyer completed all the paperwork myself (I’m a former mental health social worker). I was approved six weeks later. I did not have to pay that lawyer any of my back pay!!!
