Yes, in most cases having a child will increase social security benefits. However, keep in mind that proper care of a child will cost much more than the increased benefit is likely to provide.

Can you claim SDI if im colleting workmens compensation?

You can file for SSDI if you are receiving workers' compensation benefits. The Social Security office will probably send a form to the carrier handling your claim requesting information about any wage benefits you are being paid. SSDI benefits may be offset (reduced) by workers' comp wage benefits, but the fact that you are receiving work comp does not prevent you from being able to apply for and receive SSDI.


If you're on social security disability and your gross income is 21600 do you have to file a tax return?

Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) is available to an ill/injured worker who hasn't been able to work for more than a year because of the illness/injury. Generally, if SSDI is your only source of income, they probably aren't taxable. The rules for the taxability of SSDI benefits are the same as those for regular Social Security benefits. A quick check is that it's taxable if your other taxable income plus half of SSDI total more than $25,000 for Single filing status ($32,000 for Married Filing Jointly). For more information, go to www.irs.gov/formspubs for Publication 915 (Social Security and Equivalent Railroad Retirement Benefits).

Can you receive long term disability from a group plan where you work and also get social security disability?

Yes, you can receive long-term disability benefits from a group plan through your employer and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) simultaneously. However, many group long-term disability plans have provisions that may reduce the benefits you receive from the plan by any SSDI payments you are eligible for. It's essential to review the specific terms of your group plan to understand how it interacts with SSDI benefits. Consulting with a benefits specialist or attorney can also provide clarity on your situation.

Can you collect social security disability check while also collecting a state pension?

It depends on the specific rules of the state pension program and the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program. In some cases, receiving a state pension may affect the amount of SSDI benefits you can receive. It is recommended to check with the Social Security Administration and your state pension program for more information on how your benefits may be affected.


Do you have to file a tax return if you get ssdi?

Maybe. SSDI recipients do not receive any special exemption from the filing requirements. On your federal return, SSDI benefits are taxed using the same complicated formula as is used for Social Security retirement benefits. Whether you must file a return is determined by your total income from all sources, not just your benefits, and your filing status. To find out if you need to file a federal return, refer to Tables 1, 2, and 3 on pages 3, 4, and 5 of Publication 501: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p501.pdf Treat SSDI benefits as if they were Social Security benefits. Your state may have different rules. Refer to the instructions that came with your state tax forms or the web site of your state tax department for details.


Can you apply for social security disability if getting social security?

When people refer to "Social Security," they general mean retirement benefits. SSDI is Social Security Disability Insurance, which is paid from the same fund, but available only to disabled people who are below full retirement age.If you're asking whether you can receive both Social Security retirement and Social Security disability benefits, the answer is no. If you meet SSA guidelines for disability, you receive SSDI until you become ineligible or reach retirement age, whichever occurs first. If you remain on SSDI until retirement, your Social Security benefits automatically convert from disability to retirement. You can't receive both at the same time.If you're asking whether you can receive private disability insurance payments after you begin receiving Social Security disability or retirement benefits, that depends on the policy. Consult with your insurance agent or employer for more information.

What is presumption disability is this typr considered when one applies for SS Disablity in general?

Presumptive disability is NOT considered when you apply for SSDI. This category of benefits only applies to Medicaid and SSI benefits. If you have one of the conditons that triggers presumptive disability review under those systems, I would advise trying to get Medicaid coverage ASAP while waiting for your SSDI determination.
