Some benefits will offset with all Social Security benefits you qualify for, which essentially means the additional income you receive will be equal to the difference of your monthly benefit and your Social Security benefits.$5,000 Disability insurance benefit (off-settable)$1,000 Social Security benefitYou will receive a net $4,000 of additional income and a total of $5,000.There is also a benefit called "base" benefit, which does not offset with Social Security benefits.
