I don't feel, in the US, that there are very many people who have been approved for SSI solely for having an Asperger's/ASD Level One diagnosis.
I'm on it for that diagnosis but I am on it too for OCD and anxiety. How SSI works is you have to prove how disabled you are, not what diagnosis you have. They go by level of impairment, not by diagnosis. That is what I read in a blog about it by someone who works for the Social Security Administration.
