Will A Lawsuit Settlement Affect My Benefits?

i will receieve a lawsuit settlement in a few weeks of 27000 will that effect my social security

Hi,

The only way that I can imagine that it might is if it is an award of back wages, or if it is worker's compensation and you are receiving disability benefits.

Best, Jerry
