Katie Nobles:
And you are watching the bottom line with liner legal. Today's topic is a question from our client Benjamin. He wants to know, do social security disability benefits switch to retirement benefits when you turn 65?
Michael Liner:
Thank you, Katie. And that's a great question, Benjamin. I love all the questions that are coming in from our clients. If you are receiving social security disability benefits SSD. So the, the disability benefit that is based on your work history, then if you are also entitled to retirement benefits, which people are, if they've worked for at least 10 full years then yes, at 65, the benefits do automatically transition over to retirement benefits. A unique thing about the age of 65 for people who aren't in the realm of SSD benefits is if you are receiving SSI benefits, or if you're applying for SSI, you are automatically eligible to receive it at the age of 65. You don't have to even be disabled to receive SSI after the age of 65, which a lot of people don't know. But it's essentially it does provide for people of older age who maybe haven't had an opportunity to work during their adult lives. So 65 is a trigger age for a few things with SSD the benefits transition over to retirement benefits. And it's also an automatic eligibility age for SSI recipients. Great question, Benjamin.
Katie Nobles:
All right. And thank you so much for answering that, Michael, and we are accepting all of your questions. If there's anything that you wanna know, you can submit that on our website, that is LinerLegal.com.
