This depends on a variety of factors. Is your disability through an insurance company or a temporary ss disability check? If it is through an insurance company you can almost guarantee that SSDI will be less unless you had a pretty bad insurance policy.
If you're on temporary assistance with SSDI and go to permanent then it's very likely your checks will go up a bit.
The main factors in private insurance are your amount of coverage and your pay level. The main factors with SSDI are age and amount you paid into ss.
Hope this helps!

When does social security disability convert to normal social security?
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.
I currently am getting disability social security. Will I be getting this for the rest of my life or will it convert to regular social security when I turn 65 ?
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.
Can I Receive disability social security after receiving social security?
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.
Can the bankruptcy trustee take money for debt repayment in the six month period after bankruptcy disbursement if they receive a large Social Security Disability payment?
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.
At what age can a person is a person eligible for SS benefits if they are now receiving SSI and have enough work credits for regular SS pension benefits?
I BELIEVE YOU MUST REACH RETIREMENT AGE TO RECEIVE SOCIAL SECURITY RETIREMENT BENEFITS, HOWEVER, SINCE YOU ALREADY COLLECT, "SSI", I WOULD APPLY FOR "SSD", "DISABILITY BENEFITS", IF YOU ARE "DISABLED" AS PER "SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY "GUIDELINES" & "REQUIREMENTS". JOANNE 44 GOOD LUCK. * That would also depend upon the number of work quarters the person has accumulated.

What qualifies a woman for disability?
The Social Security disability insurance program (sometimes referred to as SSDI) pays benefits to you and certain family members if you worked long enough and paid Social Security taxes. You can go to the SSA gov website and find some information about this matter.
Which two programs managed by the Social Security Administration pay monthly disability benefits to people younger than age 65 who cannot work for at least a year because of a severe disability?
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.
You are still working 67.5 yrs old if you become disable can you apply for disability instead of regular social security?
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.
Do you have to put va disability benefits on taxes forms?
No. VA disability isn't taxable and you won't get a 1099 for this income. If you are also receiving regular military pension, your 1099-R will only include the taxable portion and will not include your VA disability portion.
If you are disabled how can you get more money to meet your needs?
By applying for social security disability benefits. If you do not have enough work quarters to qualify, there is another program called SSI. It is specifically for the disabled and/or persons over 65 who do not qualify for regular SS. Contact your local SSA office.
What is social security disability?
To qualify for Social Security disability benefits two basic things must happen. First, you must meet the Social Security Administration's definition of disability which is extremely rigid and usually require that you are totally disabled. Second, you must have accrued enough work credits. Generally, you need 40 credits, 20 of which were earned in the last 10 years ending with the year you become disabled. However, depending on your age, you may qualify with as few as 6 credits. Once you meet the criteria and are unable to work for a year or more, you'll begin receiving benefits which will usually continue until you are able to work again on a regular basis. The determination is specific and depends on a review process conducted by Social Security.
Why do Social Security insurance benefits vary from state to state?
They don't. Regular Social Security retirement and disability benefits are the same in all 50 states. Social Security is a federal program that pays differing amounts of cash benefits depending on how much you contributed in FICA taxes, the number of years worked, and your age at retirement, among other things.Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a form of welfare for low-income disabled people and seniors 65 and older, is also funded by the Social Security trust, but some states supplement the federal payout, so the benefit received may vary depending on your state of residence.
