Those are two totally different benefits that have no pertinence to each other. But to answer your question, this depends on how much your disability benefits are: if you are paid too much benefit money, you may not qualify for Section 8. Note that this depends more on how much the rent is vs. how much money you are paid each month.

If you are on disability and become the beneficiary of a life insurance does it affect your benefits?

When you are in receipt of disability living allowance or DLA as it is also known you will also be on another state benefit such as income support or invalidity benefit and when you receive the money from the life insurance upon which you are waiting you will need to contact your local benefit section of the dhss to inform them of the extra money which you have received as it is by law that you signed a document when you made your application for the state benefit that you agreed to contact them should your circumstances change as will be the case for you and if the ammount of money which you receive is above a certain ammount then yes it could well affect your ammount of either income support or invalidity benefit but as long as you are still qualified to receive one of these benefits even if the ammount drops drastically as long as you receive something on one of these then your disability living allowance will not be affected and you do not have to imform the DLA benefit office of your windfall unless it affects your eligibility for receiving income support or invalidity benefit in which case you need to notify the DLA section of the dhss that your state benefit has been stopped and then because you are not receiving the same benefits as you were before that will make you also unentitled to receive disability living allowance as one of the criteria for being eligible for dla is that you must be in receipt of one of the other state benefits .


Does Social Security include disability benefits?

United StatesIn the United States, the Social Security Administration is responsible for federal disability benefits as well as retirement and survivors' benefits, Supplemental Security Income, and several other related social programs.There are 2 federal programs under the U.S. Social Security Administration that are designed to provide disability benefits to injured/disabled workers or individuals with little income and few resources. The first is Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and the second is the Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Persons with disabilities may apply to either depending on their qualifications, so as to receive monthly financial assistance to help make ends meet while they are unable to work for a living or if they totally have no means of earning.United KingdomThe department of health and social security is now called the department for work and pensions and whatever benefits you receive are paid from one of their offices albeit that income support and job seekers and most other benefits are granted and sent out from offices here in England your disability living allowance comes from Belfast from the dla office based there and although your DLA is indeed a state benefit it is not what you would call social security benefits which are there for you to live on and DLA is not for you to live on but there for your quality of life and therefore does not come under the same section in the benefits office.


I am filing for disability retirement, am I required to have state taxes with held from disability checks I was told no because I am disabled. Thank you?

Can you collect disability after retirement age?

Private Disability InsuranceYou would have to review the policy that you purchased for the benefit period.Relating specifically to individual disability insurance coverage - Yes, you should be eligible for disability benefits after retirement age. You should review the parameters of your coverage to see the specifics of benefits that are payable after age 65. usually you must continue to be working full time for at least 10 months out of the year and benefits will be reduced to 1-year benefit periods. There is a section of your policy specifically devoted to this topic. Review the wording and charts included in your actual contract.Social SecurityWhen one is collecting SSA retirement benefits they are not eligible for Social Security Disability as well.Social Security Disability is for those persons below retirement age who have acquired enough work credits to be awarded disability payments if they incur an illness or physical impairment that prevents them from being employable at the level they were before said injury or illness.SSA does have a supplemental program (SSI) for those who do not qualify for SSD benefits, however said program generally applies to persons with little or no available income. Information concerning all SS benefits and regulations can be found at Social Security Online.Another View:Although much of the forgoing is correct, it may confusing to readers. If you are referring to private disability insurance that you purchased through a private insurer, such insurance benefits usually terminate at age 65 (provided the insured has remained disabled for that long). At that point, the disabled person must make a decision of whether to elect to take Social Security then, or if means allow, to delay that election in which event he/she will likely receive a greater benefit.
