Hi @tmasta, welcome to the community!
So sorry to hear about your current situation. From what I know, there are particular circumstances when it comes to disability benefits when you're homeless. I think it would be worth contacting Shelter, as they are most likely more knowledgeable in this area- you can find their online/phone advisors here. Hope this helps and please do keep us updated.
