My sister in law applied for spousal disability when she turned 60 from my deceased brother. Afterwards she became disabled while working. She receives his benefits but her job is paying her also. Does she need to apply for her disability and can she still receive her pay from job.

I went above the allotted amount, so they suspended my benefits. I have stop working since then. So my question is can I still work as long as I don't go over being that I past the 36 months trial period?

I had 3 heart attack and want to apply for disability but my wife just sold a house and gave her son $100000 as a gift do we have to pay taxes on that and will this affect my ability to apply to disability.

Hi. My expertise is limited to Social Security benefits, so I'm unable to answer questions about taxes. The fact that your wife sold a house wouldn't hinder your ability to qualify for Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits, nor any other type of Social Security benefit.

If I get aprove for disability .and why I was waiting to get approved I'm also a foster parent would that affect me from getting my back payment money because I was a foster parent getting income.

Hi. If what you've applied for is Supplemental Security Income (SSI) disability, then any kind of income that you receive could potentially affect your eligibility for benefits. But, if you've applied for Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits then only earned income could potentially affect your eligibility.

I’m on disability and I want to know if I can get social security I’m 63 years old

Hi Larry I can never find a question on Google concerning working on SSDI under SGA -NOT THE TICKET TO WORK( I know about that 9 month over SGA and extended 36 month ) What I'm trying to locate is - .Can you work below the SGA forever on SSDI? Plus do you need to report below SGA every month to SS ?
Someone told me their working under 10 hours a week and making under SGA monthly.The person says they dont report it as long as its under SGA .Is this true ?
Thank you Dee

I am on SSI for disability said i was short on recent work credits for social security disability . Is there away to get my full retirement amount at 62 since all my paperwork is approved disability from SS

Hi. No, not unless you qualify for Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits . If you start drawing Social Security retirement benefits prior to your full retirement age (FRA) your benefit rate is reduced for age even if you're disabled. The only way you can get your FRA rate paid prior to FRA is if you qualify for SSDI benefits.

We lost our home of 26 years and I was getting disability for my 35 year old son Jason, somehow we missed the appointment and I need to reinstate him now that we have moved and have a new address? What do I need to do to reinstate him as quick as possible? Thank You in advance

Hi Larry,

Someone asked about collecting social security while waiting for SSDI approval. It's at the link below.Part of your answer didn't make sense to me. I don't understand why in the example the guy has to wait until he's 66 to collect disability benefits.

I'm 61. I became my ssdi application in 2020. There's a decent chance it won't be approved until after my 62nd birthday. My FRA is 67.

Assming the one date is determined to be in 2020, If I start taking reduced benefits at 62, what happens when the SSDI claim is approved?

I'm collecting social security right now and I was collecting unemployment but I had to stop unemployment 2 months ago because I end up getting that stroke so that's when they're wonder if I could like disability for a while until I'm better cuz I can't get unemployment because I can't look for work
