I am Ghanaian living in Vietnam. I had an accident and broke my knee. That has kept me indoors for almost a year without a job. Feeding and paying other bills have become a problem. May I know if I qualify for any financial assistance from the SSD. Thank you.

Hello NRETIA ESSIEN.

SSD is a US government social welfare program available to US citizens (as I understand it. I'm open to correction if wrong).

As a Ghanaian, I suggest you ask about your own gov't's disability program(s) through your nearest Ghanaian embassy or consulate. Not sure if expats living in Ghana will be of much help, but you could try asking, here. (Link)

Also, you are responding to a thread from 8 years ago.

Good luck
