Can you receive Social Security disability benefits and Social Security retirement benefits at the same time?

No. The Social Security Administration will only pay one benefit -- either retirement or disability, but not both. If you qualify for disability before you reach full retirement age, your monthly benefit will automatically convert to retirement at the same monthly rate once you reach full retirement age.
If you are already receiving early retirement, you do not qualify for disability because you've voluntarily elected not to work in return for a reduced monthly benefit.
If you think your situation may present an exception, you can contact an SSA representative at 1-800-772-1213, Monday through Friday, 7:00 am - 7:00 pm EST, to discuss your options.

∙ 13y agoNo. You can only receive Social Security disability benefits if you are below full retirement age and meet SSA disability severity guidelines. Once you reach retirement age (65 for people born before 1943; 66 for those born in 1943-1954; gradually increasing to 67 for those born in 1960 and later), your disability benefits automatically convert to retirement benefits at the same base rate.
