Yes. Marriage, by itself, has no impact on whether you can receive disability benefits. If the Social Security Administration determines you are disabled and you (or your spouse) have accumulated an adequate number of work credits, you can receive benefit payments under SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) regardless of your marital status, assets or income.
If you are found disabled, but you (or your spouse) do not have an adequate number of work credits, you may qualify for SSI (Supplemental Security Income), but only if your income and assets fall below certain thresholds. Some recipients may qualify for both SSDI and SSI, but you are less likely to receive SSI payments if your spouse is working.

Your spouses income does not count against you as earned income, but you do get taxed on your benefit checks and any other income you have. So, if you don't have money taken out of your checks for tax purposes, (which you wouldn't b/c they don't normally tax them) you get hit with a rather large tax bill at the end of the year. It ended up being around 10% of my ssdi income or a little more than one months benefit amount, plus any taxes on any part time income you may have. EVERYTHING gets taxed, it really sucks if you're not prepared for it. Good luck!
Q&D answer: Disability Benefits, under Social Security regulations, (United States, only) are determined by an administrative process which considers exertional and non-exertional factors; evaluation of medical reports, and lastly, flesh on bone analysis by a specially trained individual, an Administrative Law Judge, who renders the final 'trial' decision. (There are administrative steps in appeal or a final appeal to the Federal court system; however, these are relatively rare considering the number of applications for social security disability annually.)
Your eligibility for benefits is unrelated to your marital status; HOWEVER, the amount of the benefits, if the benefits are based on other than your participation in the mandatory insurance program administered by the Social Security Administration, you may receive less than the 'standard' amount. Further, each state may add the Supplement Security Income program with its own contribution. (Note: the amount of benefits is unrelated to the eligibility for benefits; Supplement Security Income is a means tested program with state and federal criteria for the amount of benefits.
You won't lose Federal disability benefits if you get married. However, the financial information of both spouses will need to be reported at the periodic reviews of your case. Disability benefits from other sources would be on an individual policy basis. If you have benefits other than from the Social Security Administration, contact the agency or company that provides your benefits.

No. By giving permission for her to get married (and they both require parental consent to get married at 17) you are cutting her loose. She is emancipated and no longer your responsibility.
In 2010, People on disability can earn up to $1,000 per month ($12,000 per year) for most disabilities, or $1,640 per month ($19,680 per year) if legally blind. Earning more than these limits would be considered engaging in Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA), would trigger a continuing disability review, and likely result in termination of the person's disability status with Social Security.If you decide to return to work, the SSA allows nine non-consecutive months where earned income is unlimited; however, any month a disabled person earns more than $720.00 is counted toward the nine-month trial work period.Social Security disability benefits may be temporarily reduced if the person is also receiving Worker's Compensation or other public disability payments. The total amount of all sources of government disability income, including SSDI, cannot exceed 80% of the worker's average current earnings at the time of disability.SSDI benefits are based on the amount of money a worker paid in FICA (insurance) taxes during his or her working years, and is not means-tested. The Social Security Administration only cares about earned income as a measure of work performance. There is no limit on passive income a disabled person can receive from other sources, such as pension, annuities, capital gains, dividends, gifts, etc. There is also no limit to the amount of income other family or household members may earn. None of this money affects your SSDI disability benefits.Different rules apply for people who are on SSI(Supplemental Security Income, a form of welfare for the disabled) or a combination of SSDI and SSI, which is means-tested. Only the SSI portion of the person's income may change; the SSDI payments are affected exactly as detailed above.
