SSI in Virginia: state supplement, recipients and offices

Does Virginia add money to SSI?

State supplement: n/d. Virginia is not in SSA's January 2026 table of supplements that SSA pays for states. If Virginia 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.

SSI and Medicaid in Virginia

Virginia is a “209(b) state”: it uses at least one Medicaid rule stricter than SSI's, so SSI does not by itself mean Medicaid. People apply to the state Medicaid agency, and income can be reduced by medical bills (spend-down).
