If you can afford to contribute to an IRA account, you should not be receiving social security checks.

Disability checks are being paid so you can pay rent, buy food and not to save it in an IRA account.

Be careful, you can go to jail if they feel you have lied about your income.

Yes, you can contribute to an IRA account even if you receive Social Security Disability and do not earn enough to pay taxes. As long as you have earned income from sources other than Social Security or other non-taxable benefits, you are eligible to contribute to an IRA. However, it is always recommended to consult with a financial advisor or tax professional for personalized advice based on your specific situation.

Can the IRS levy or garnish a Social Security Disability Settlement Check?

Social Security does not allow garnishment of disability benefits by creditors. Any credit card company, business, or individual who has won a judgment against you will never garnish your Social Security disability check.Social Security will allow garnishment of your Social Security disability benefits for current and past due child support or alimony. And the Internal Revenue Service is allowed to garnish Social Security disability and retirement benefits for delinquent taxes.Also, in addition to the IRS, other federal agencies may be allowed to garnish Social Security disability benefits.For instance, if an individual owes student loans that were federally guaranteed their Social Security disability benefit can be garnished.In theory, any money owed to the federal government can conceivably be garnished from Social Security retirement or disability checks.If you receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) disability benefits, however, no creditor can garnish your benefit, not even the Federal Government. Since SSI is a need based disability benefit, it cannot be garnished.
