Do you have to count social security payment as income that you now have to pay back?

If you pay it back in the same year you received it, no.

The taxable amount of benefits shown on your Form 1099-SSA will be automatically adjusted to account for repayments.

If you will pay it back in a later year, yes.

See page 15 of Publication 915 to see how to deal with repayments that exceed your benefits:

Can an UK expat return to the UK after 17 years and claim housing and social security benefits immediately?

What a disgraceful answer! This person has probably paid into the UK system so why should they not be entitled to a little help if they want to come home? You have no idea what their circumstances are. Unfortunately I don't know the answer but hopefully someone with a little more compassion that the previous poster will be able to provide one.

Can drug addicts collect Social Security disability?

if you can prove that the addiction has caused you to be socially isolated or has caused medical problems...and yes according to the human rights code drug addiction is considered an addiction...but the social benefits tribunal has not acknowledged the human rights code in their decisions..Two alcoholics have taken it all the way to the supreme court and the court ruled it is an addiction according to the human rights code and that the social benefits tribunal has to take the human rights code into consideration in all future appeals or decisions..hopefully this is helpful

Technical Answer

Generally, no. Neither drug addiction nor alcoholism are classified as disabilities under SSA guidelines unless they are accompanied by another qualifying condition.

Under Title II federal law, drug addiction and alcoholism are treated differently than other disabilities. According to 42 U.S.C. §423(d)(2)(C), if a medical condition is caused or aggravated by addiction:

"(C) An individual shall not be considered to be disabled for purposes of this title if alcoholism or drug addiction would (but for this subparagraph) be a contributing factor material to the Commissioner's determination that the individual is disabled."

While drug addiction and alcoholism are both disabling, as of 1996, federal law prohibits SSA from granting disability to anyone whose primary disability is a substance abuse disorder, or to anyone whose disabling condition would not meet the test for severity if the person stopped drinking or using drugs.

Once substance abuse has created irreversible damage that is not expected to improve if the person stops abusing, the condition becomes eligible for disability coverage if it prevents the person from engaging in Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA). SGA is often defined as being able to work full-time, but the SSA places a low ceiling of $1,000 per month (or $1,640, if blind) on wages considered evidence of SGA.

Conditions that may be approved with co-occurringsubstance-abuse problems, if they meet the SSA guidelines for severity include: "organic mental disorder, gastritis, seizures, liver damage, peripheral neuropathies, depression, anxiety, pancreatitis, or personality disorders."

Is social security considered income?

No not as earned wages or income. It is possible for 50 % to 85 % of your SSB to become taxable income on your 1040 income tax return when you have other sources of worldwide income or tax exempt interest and tax exempt dividend income that has to be reported on your 1040 income tax return.

My wife and I both draw social security. If one of us dies will the living spouse draw any or part of the deceased social security benefit?

Basically, you draw benefits based on the highest possibility. So, if you would die first, depending on if your benefit or her benefit would be higher, the payments would be based on that one. They give you the higher of the two.
