No. Social Security Disability (SSDI) is a form of government-administered insurance that you and/or a spouse paid into through FICA taxes when working, and is not means-tested. You are not penalized for having unearned income, assets, or wages from other household members. Supplemental Security Income (SSI), which many people confuse with SSDI, is a form of welfare available only to disabled (or retired over age 65) people with limited income and assets.
