Hi,

If I understand your question, you're asking if your disability benefits will be affected if you get married. The answer is to that question is no, assuming that what you're receiving is Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits. Or, If you're receiving is Social Security disabled widow's benefits, getting married after your benefits have started wouldn't stop or reduce your benefits. Or, if what you're receiving is Social Security disabled adult child benefits, those benefits wouldn't end or be reduced as long as you marry someone who is already receiving Social Security benefits.

However, if you're receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI), then getting married could cause your SSI payments to stop or be reduced. SSI is a needs based benefit, so any change in your marital status, living arrangements or your income and resources can affect your SSI eligibility and payment amount.

You may at some point be able to qualify for benefits on your spouse's record if you marry. You would likely need to be married for at least a year and be at least age 62 before you could qualify for spousal benefits, though, unless you have an eligible child in your care. Also, you could only qualify for spousal benefits if your spouse's primary insurance amount (PIA) is more than twice as much as your own PIA. A person's PIA is equal to their Social Security retirement benefit rate if they start drawing their benefits at full retirement age (FRA), or their full SSDI rate.

Best, Jerry
