Can You Collect Social Security Retirement Benefits and Disability Benefits At The Same Time

A common question about Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) and retirement benefits is if you can recieve both at the same time.
Understand that you can't collect both simultaneously. SSDI is designed for individuals below retirement age facing severe disability, injury, or prolonged illness hindering work for a year or more.
SSDI seamlessly transitions to a retirement benefit at full retirement age (66 or 67). Generally, the transition maintains your full benefit without additional costs.
Find out about the possibility of switching to SSDI if you filed for early retirement benefits and later became disabled.

been on the SSDI disability path lately, and let me tell you, it's been a journey. The support I've found in it is a lifeline.

During the "obamacare" era, I was taken off SSDI and put on SS and lost about $400. a month, but I was onlu in my late 50s. Is there qanything I can do?

There is nothing to do with Obamacare. Were you getting SSI for disability ?

SS gave me the 62&9 months amount due to heart attack, i applied for SSDI 2 months ago. I call SS they said if i don't get SSDI MY SS amount will stay at the 62 yr amount for ever? Is that even possible that our gov would do that to a person who has worked for 46 years? OMG please help

Double dipping is simply not fair & a drain of SS coffers. Simply not necessary

@DavidD-bg7uo 2 жыл бұрын

There is also the matter of Medicare, which I receive with my disability benefits. I'm 61 now and if I was to switch to social security at 62, I would lose that, correct? Wouldn't it be better if I wait to FRA to switch?

Hi I get SSI and one of my parents is going to retire in a few months and that parent got a call from the SSA asking saying that we see you have a son that gets ssi im 28 they told my parent that they can give half of there my parent pension and half of the ssi to me I know that is a lie is not possible because I just want my own income I don’t want to take the money that my parent worked so hard to get so my question is can my parent just ask to retire there ssi number because they said mine will automatic retire as well and I don’t want that maybe one day in the future I’m going to want to look for a job and if they run my ssi number they will tell me that my number is retired and I don’t want that I would really appreciate the help if anyone knows about this

But social security sent me a letter telling me that my benefits will drop by $300 dollars from my SSDI to retirement social security ! Why ?

@Spidey-tb3tu 2 жыл бұрын

Not me. Mine continues as if I waited until full retirement benefit. Used an attorney.

I am disabled and receiving SSDI benefits at age 60 , before it converts to SS Retirement benefits at age 67 can I then postpone those benefits until I reach age 70 to increase the benefit amount I receive?
