Does Utah add money to SSI?

State supplement: n/d. Utah is not in SSA's January 2026 table of supplements that SSA pays for states. If Utah pays a supplement, the state pays it, not SSA, and we found no current official table for it. Ask the state agency that runs social services. For questions about SSI itself, call SSA at 1-800-772-1213.
