My father recently passed. I have inherited his home and purchased one for my family. The family has decided to rent out his home instead of selling it. I am on SSDI, will the purchase and renting out my fathers home effect my SSDI benefits? I also will start receiving a nominal monthly amount from his investments, will this effect SSDI? Do I need to inform SSDI of these changes?Thank You
I have been receiving benefits for a couple of years now and just discovered I am going to receive an inheritance of around 50k from a recently passed relative. I understand that SSDI benefits will not be affected by the inheritance, but SSI benefits could be affected. My problem is I honestly don't remember which government alphabet soup is it that I receive, SSDI or SSI. Is there a simple place I can double-check which I actually receive? Would the social security website have it?
I was awarded disability benefits in 2017. I was also awarded a settlement from a car accident I was in. My question is how can I receive my disability and still benefit from my automobile accident settlement?
Disability is not based on income. It is only based on your previous work history, therefore there should be no changes to your disability. For more details about your specific case, you can always give your local SSA office a call.
In short, SSDI and SSI both have the same medical requirements (outlined in the Blue Book). To also qualify for SSDI, you'll need to have enough work credits (which are earned by paying into Social Security taxes - the amount needed varies with age). For SSI, the amount of work credits you have doesn't matter. Instead, it's based on income. You will need to be within the SSA's income limits to qualify for SSI.
My brother receives SSDI. Our
My brother receives SSDI. Our father died and he is a beneficiary on 2 IRA. If he cashes in the inherited IRA will it affect his benefits?

Hi Nikki,
If he is on SSDI, then his benefits will not be affected.

Hi Yvonne,
Hi Yvonne,
SSDI is based on your own work history and not any forms of income. Therefore there should not be any changes to your benefits.
