According to the social security website, the fact that a person has just been released from prison does not constitute him as disabled and he is therefore not eligible for benefits. (FYI, if he is physically or mentally disabled and incarcerated he may qualify and even be able to apply for benefits as he nears his release date.) Hope this helped.

The USA Social Security Administration states that children who receive benefits through an incarcerated parent: "Although you cannot receive monthly Social Security benefits while you are confined, benefits to your spouse or children will continue as long as they remain eligible."
Yes, if you are eligible for Social Security benefits, you will still receive your benefits. According to the Social Security Administration, the person incarcerated will not receive monthly Social Security benefits, but benefits to their spouse or children will continue as long as those dependents remain eligible.
No, but most can generally receive social security once they are out.
Social Security eligibility is regulated by federal, not state, law. If you are already receiving Social Security benefits when your spouse becomes incarcerated, your benefits will continue, but any benefit that was payable to your spouse will stop. If the incarcerated spouse's checks or direct deposit continue after 30 days in jail or prison, you will have to return the money to the Social Security Administration. If you were not receiving Social Security benefits prior to your spouse becoming incarcerated, you will not be eligible to file until he (or she) is released from prison. This is a general rule to which there may be some exceptions. It would be wise to call the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213 and explain your situation to a representative.
A felon may receive SSDI benefits if he or she is not incarcerated for more than 30 days and has no outstanding warrants. Social Security will not pay cash benefits to anyone living in a prison, jail, nursing home or other tax-supported facility; however, if the person remains eligible for disability under SSA guidelines, payments resume after release. Payees are not entitled to back benefits for the time spent incarcerated.
While you are incarcerated yes, but most can generally gain this back once they are not incarcerated.
The total amount of the social security bonus you are eligible to receive is 15,978.
In order to be eligible to collect Social Security benefits, you generally need to have worked and paid Social Security taxes for at least 10 years, or 40 quarters.

Only if you are eligible.
You have to be someone that is at least 62.
