What is the typical amount I could draw for SS Disability? I am already on Medicare.
Thank you
Hi. There is no 'typical' amount. Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits are paid at 100% of a person's primary insurance amount (PIA), and each person's PIA varies depending on their average wage indexed Social Security covered earnings in the years used to compute their benefit rate (https://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/handbook/handbook.05/handbook-0503.html). The higher your average Social Security taxed earnings were, the higher your SSDI benefit rate would be.
Also, since you mentioned already being on Medicare, I should point out that SSDI benefits can only be paid for months prior to when a person reaches their full retirement age (FRA).
Best, Jerry
