Do Social Security Disability Benefits Switch to Retirement Benefits When You Turn 65?

Way back started ssdi my wife n kids got monthly checks now 21 yrs later wife is unemployed could she be ellagible for spousal benefits again

If I am getting SS disability & it stops because I am working, how can I find out how much SS I will get when I retire?

My husband is disabled...when it switches over at 66 will I continue to receive some of his benefits..

Right now I am 64 (birthday in May) and am receiving Disability benefits. I understand that I will not be penalized if I stay in my spouse's employer PROVIDED health plan (it will remain primary, with Medicare as secondary) if had the Medicare Parts B and D (which I don't right now), and a special enrollment window will open up for me to enroll later when my spouse retired and loses that insurance I am covered under now (with no penalties) for parts B, C, and/or D of Medicare. However, I also have read that at age 66 my disability will automatically be converted (at the same amount) to regular Retirement SSI. I receive disability discounts on one of my prescriptions right now. But when disability converts to regular retirement benefits at age 66, will I still be considered disabled (my disability is permanent, it won't get better, it can only be treated) in order to qualify for these benefits?

What is retirement age in 2017?
I have been receiving disability benefits since I was 58. I am now 62 and am under the impression that I must file papers and change my disability benefits to early retirement to collect Social Security benefits. Is that mandatory? Some info on the web says 65 is retirement age. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have a payee now under SSDI, when I turn 66 it converts to regular retirement benefits, will I no longer need a payee?

Having difficulty with SS correcting my DOB gone down to local office three times they have not corrected it even though I have shown proof. Off by one year. Is there some way I can correct this one and for all by going to another location my local office has dropped the ball two many times on this. Thanks BobD

I am on ssdi due to heart attack and other issues and cant work any more. I would like to go to PR due to the weather. will I be able to get my ssdi in PR?

I am currently collecting SSDI from my own work history and also collecting a widows benefit each month. So basically I am getting two checks per month. When I reach full retirement age, will they combine the both checks or will I lose one and have my current benefits go down? Hope you can help

I'm turning 56 on ssdi, and my 36 months of working up this year, work is part time no benefits. Still disabled and don't know what to do?

I am currently receiving two ssdi checks, one from my account and one for widows benefits. When I become full retirement age in 3 years, will I lose the widows benefits or will they be combined to equal the same amount when they convert me to regular retirement benefits?

At age 60 back surgery prevented me from returning to work where i did a lot of heavy lifting. I started receiving s.s. disability later that year. Im now 65. Would s.s. allow me to work if a job required no lifting.

I'm on SSD, my husband was also on SSD he recently switched to SS at age 66am I able to collect from his SS because what I make isn't enough to make ends meet

If I have been working p.t. on Ticket to Work, taxes have been taken from my gross pay. When I go from ssdi to ss retirement, will my monthly ss amount go up?

I am on disability. My benefits include SSD and my work disability insurance.
When I turn 66 I'll stop receiving work portion(which is more than a half), will my SS change?

Since now I receive disability, when I reach retirement age, will I be able to apply to add spousal benefits to my retirement?

I am receiving ssdi from my deceased husbands record. We were divorced at the time of his death. I am bilaterally hearing impaired and proving this disabilty was lengthy! Will I convert to retirement benefits based on his birthdate or mine. At 66, they fall only months from one another. Also will I be contacted of the change to retirement benefits? Thank you!

I collect my SSDI based on my husbands record. We were divorced when he died. I have turned down opportunities to do small jobs over time because I was afraid my disabilty would come into question.I will be 66 in March of this year. Am I correct in thinking that first, my SSDI will transfer to retirement benefits this March, secondly, will I be able to find a small job I can do and not be in fear of losing my monthly income? Thank you!

My husband of 40 years has been on SSD for 20 years. He is almost 62. His health is not good, so he may not live to full retirement age of 66 and 2 months. I am 58. What happens to his SSD if he passes away before full retirement age? Will I be left without any income from his SSD benefit? I work, but we have depended on that to help support ourselves for many years.

Im already on ssi can I recevie my retirement benefits also at 58. Im sick I have lupus?

hello, i am on soc sec disability in CA. I turned 60 in Dec and just recieved notice that i am being switched to retirement ss meaning i will receive much less.... i thought being born in 56 i would not switch until age 66

My ex- spouse (over 20 years married) has been on Disability for over 15 years. When she turns 66 in April will they automatically convert her to half my benefit amount? Do I need to flag them ahead of time to be sure she gets switched to mine?
