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

I live in Alabama and receive a social security disability check. I am 61 years of age. I just received a letter stating that I need to do paperwork on my pension plan concerning how I want it to be paid. Can I defer my pension check until I am 61 years and 6 months and it not affect my disability check amount or will they still reduce my monthly check the amount of my pension check?

I have been receiving SSDI for a few years. I will be 65 in Nov. Can I get my pension with out penalty or do I have to wait till I'm 66. Thankyoh

I will be 65 next September I now receive s disability will my checks stay the sam

If one spouse receives SSDI will it affect the other spouse receiving SSDI? Also, is SSDI based on income or is it based on the amount a person would get under full Social Security Retirement? My sister-in-law never worked but is now disabled.

Does the check amout change when you move from disability to retirement? (Social Security)

My mom is 74 and her disability never changed to retirement why

I have 2 questions can I earn any money while drawing ssdi . If so is it possible to have a small business of your own to help supplement ssdi ?

My husband passed away at age 61. I started drawing social security survival until I became disabled. At that time the survival Benefits stopped because social security said you cannot receive more than one and you draw which ever is most. I will turn age 66 in October. Social security said I will not have to do anything, that my benefits will just automatically change back to survivers benefits. Will it change in October or November? My birthday is October. Also, I'm confused about the amount and if it changes from the third Weds of month or to the first in October or not till November?

How can I increase my SSD income?

Hi Shane, I was Married to my ex husband in 1975 - we were separated in 1992 and divorced 1994, In 1992 I had to work to supplement what he was giving me, I worked 2 jobs in 1999 do to accident at one of my jobs, I Had to have emergency Back Surgery, At that time due to my accident I received Workers Comp. I continued to work my second job, until 2005, when i had to have another surgery on my back due to the accident in 1999 I then applied for SSD and received it, cause I could no longer work, so each month I received to checks one from Workers Comp & SSD, When I turned 66 this years 2017 I am now on straight SS & I still receive a check from Workers Comp. When I went to SS to make sure everything was right, i asked them if I was able to collect from my ex husbands SS, They told me that I was not entitled to it, I never remarried, but he did, I am so confused ???? September 26. 2017

My husband was approved for SSDI in 2016. In 2017, he applied and was approved for early retirement at the age of 60. He receives retirement pay. Can he receive both or should the SSDI have been stopped?

Husband started receiving SSDI last year. This year he retired from civil service and is receiving FERS retirement check. Can he collect both or should his SSDI have been or should be stopped?

I will be retirement age 66 on Nov 12, 2017. I am now receiving SSDI. Today is Oct 4, 2017. What date should I call to "file and suspend"? can I wait until after Oct 12? Also, I will receive my Nov benefit of $1400, and also receive my December $1400, correct?

I'd like to thank the author of this informative literature.I found it to be very resourceful and to the point.
Thanks..

I have received a monthly SSA disability check since 2011. I understand that when I turn 67 it will change to social security retirement check, is this in name only or will my check amount drop down to what I would normally receive if I weren’t disabled?
I’m just above poverty level now, I am 55 yrs old, single and have no other source of income except my disability income. The thought of living on less than I do now is very scary.
Thanks for any insight.

Ssdi auto converts to reg soc sec. I want to do a restricted form to get my husbands benefits instead of mine. Born 1952 and can still do this if I haven'the taken my benefits. Does dis count as having taken my full retirement benefits. So confused.

I am currently on SSDI When I am eligble for regular retirement will SS restore my benefit as I am currently being penalized for not having health insurance years ago?

I'm confused. I receive SSD b/c of permanent short term memory loss. I was born Oct. 5, 1955 & my first marriage ended after 18 years. I remarried 2 yrs later & we have been married for 23 years. I worked until my accident at age 40 (I think that's how old I was, anyway) how much will I receive after SSD or how would I even begin to calculate the amount?

What is the highest amount of SSI disability that can be awarded? And even if this amount is less than I would have received at age 66 from SS for full retirement, will I the amount remain the same as the SSI disability?

I get VA disability and SSDI. I am 66, born 1951. I did not retire from military. Will my SSDI change to SIS? Will it decrease

I’m on SSDI and get a drug benefit from my previous employer. When I change over to SSI and my drug benefit from my employer ends do I get a penalty for not having Part D during this period ?
