To qualify for Social Security disability benefits, you must first have worked in jobs covered by Social Security. If your job is covered, then you must have a medical condition that meets Social Security's definition of disability.

Can a person receive any type of ssi or ssdi while recovering from surgery?

SSI is income based for the household and SSDI is disability income which is what you can apply for if your illness will end in death and is expected to last more than 12 months. You have to qualify for these. I would have to say no to both. Visit ssa.gov for more info


Can you get medicaid at 62 if you receive social security disability insurance?

Yes, you can qualify for Medicaid at age 62 if you receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). While SSDI is not the same as Supplemental Security Income (SSI), many states offer Medicaid coverage to individuals who receive SSDI, especially if their income and resources are within certain limits. Eligibility can vary by state, so it's important to check local Medicaid guidelines.

SSI is a federal program. Your SSDI income is too high for SSI regardless of where you live. The same is likely true for Medicaid, regardless of state.


How does my wife's income affect my social security disability?

No, If you are on ssdi, it is a paid into program and there is no money cap. If you are on SSI then yes. To receive money in this program you must be both disabled and poor. Married persons income are looked at as one income. To receive SSI there must be 2,000 dollars or less in your bank account. Again SSDI will not be affected.

If a person marries and has Social Security Disability insurance and married a woman who is on ssi what happens and can the new spouse who is disabled get ssdi from her new husband ssdi insurance?

When a person on Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) marries someone who receives Supplemental Security Income (SSI), the SSI recipient's benefits may be affected, as SSI is need-based and considers household income and resources. The new spouse on SSDI cannot directly draw benefits from the other's SSDI, but if the SSDI recipient is eligible, their spouse may qualify for auxiliary benefits based on the SSDI. However, the couple's overall financial situation will determine how benefits are adjusted, and it’s advisable to consult with the Social Security Administration for specific guidance.

How much alimony or maintenance can a person on disability receive without affecting their benefits?

The amount of alimony or maintenance a person on disability can receive without affecting their benefits largely depends on the specific disability program they are enrolled in, such as Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). For SSDI, there are generally no strict limits on unearned income like alimony, but it could affect the amount of benefits if it leads to substantial gainful activity. In the case of SSI, any alimony received may count as income, potentially reducing benefits dollar-for-dollar. It's advisable to consult with a benefits specialist or attorney to understand the implications for individual circumstances.
