Yes, if you are eligible for Social Security benefits, you will still receive your benefits. According to the Social Security Administration, the person incarcerated will not receive monthly Social Security benefits, but benefits to their spouse or children will continue as long as those dependents remain eligible.

Are parolees eligible for social security due to being incarcerated?

According to the social security website, the fact that a person has just been released from prison does not constitute him as disabled and he is therefore not eligible for benefits. (FYI, if he is physically or mentally disabled and incarcerated he may qualify and even be able to apply for benefits as he nears his release date.) Hope this helped. http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10133.html


Can you receive Social Security benefits if your spouse is in prison in the state of Louisiana?

Social Security eligibility is regulated by federal, not state, law. If you are already receiving Social Security benefits when your spouse becomes incarcerated, your benefits will continue, but any benefit that was payable to your spouse will stop. If the incarcerated spouse's checks or direct deposit continue after 30 days in jail or prison, you will have to return the money to the Social Security Administration. If you were not receiving Social Security benefits prior to your spouse becoming incarcerated, you will not be eligible to file until he (or she) is released from prison. This is a general rule to which there may be some exceptions. It would be wise to call the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213 and explain your situation to a representative.

Payees are not entitled to back benefits for the time spent incarcerated.
