Disabilitiy social security will usually stay that way as long as you have the disability. If your situation changes, it may convert back to regular, but usually it stays disability.
Sure, but it's a waste of time. Applying for disability is a pain in the a** and it won't get you any more money. You should be collecting regular Social Security right now, even if you're still working.
Once you reach retirement age, your Social Security Disability benefits convert to regular retirement benefits, payable at the same rate. You cannot collect an additional amount due to disability. It is possible that you could qualify for the SSI supplemental security income, which is based on disability and income, in addition to your month Social Security benefit, but this is a different program and is not administered by the SSA. The amount of SSI paid is adjusted monthly based on what the person was able to earn in that month.
The benefit payments are to help pay for the extra care needed by these children. The parents of a disabled child may not be able to work a regular full time job due to caring for the disabled child.
age 62 Once you receive SSD, you do not receive your regular SS benefits. They DO NOT convert over. I have been down that road.
this is in terms here social security IS disability it's called "social security disability income" or short "S.S.D.I." the only other one is really S.S.I. which is "supplemental security income" now just saying "I get social security" is disability , as in no longer able to work...generally speaking due to age or disability all the same fund that you paid into while working..S.S.I you can also apply for and sometimes get along with other S.S.A. (social security administration) monies
Yes TITLE 42, CHAPTER 7, SUBCHAPTER IV, Part D. § 659
The following rule applies to "regular" SSI benefits and may also apply to disability payments, but check with the Social Security Administration to be sure. If you have a totally separate bank account, either checking or savings, and no money from ANY source other than Social Security has EVER been deposited into it, then that money is protected from garnishment by ANY source, even the IRS or state tax authorities. I started a separate savings account and my monthly payment is direct deposited into it. Then, as I need money, I transfer it to checking for paying bills, etc.
No. Distributions from a 401k are unearned income for Social Security purposes, and do not affect the benefit amount you receive under regular SS retirement or SSDI (disability) programs. Only SSI (Supplemental Security Income, a form of welfare) payments are means-tested and offset by either earned orunearned income.
Typically no. There are no absolutes here. If you disclosed to the Court that you were in the process of obtaining Disability, you should have nothing to worry about. However, if you kept this info from them, I would ask the lawyer who handled your case. * No. All Social Security benefits whether disability, SSI, or regular pension benefits are exempt from bankruptcy action.
I know from personal experience that Social Security will pay disabled individuals who are deemed permanently disabled. That is through FICA, the Federal INSURANCE contribution act. Most people do not know that FICA is an insurance plan that not only pays when an individual reaches retirement age but also for disability, survivor's benefits to children under 18 whose parent has died, and a whole $250 burial benefit (which hasn't been changed or upgraded since inception of the act in 1936). For those who have not earned sufficient amounts to have social security pay, a permanently disabled can receive SSDI, Social Security Disability Income which is separate from the regular SSD (Social Security Disability) program. A massive hemorrhagic stroke disabled me to the point that I could not walk, talk or, of course, do any work. It has taken YEARS to get to the point that I'm at now. When I turned 65, my disability income from SSD (I had been a computer engineer when I had the stroke) converted to regular Social Security and I continued to receive the same amount as when I was receiving disability income. Hope that helps.
Yes. In CA it's (2) temporary disability benefits, two-thirds of the lost wages, up to a maximum of $728 per week. (3) permanent disability benefits, rating schedule up to $728 per week -- for life
