UNDER AGE 67? SEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY (SSDI)

 If you are below your Full Retirement Age (FRA), which is around 67 for most people, you may be eligible for thousands of dollars per month in Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) benefits.

Here's what's required:

• A medical/mental condition that has or will keep you off work for 12+ months.

• You are not currently working at "Substantial Gainful Activity" (earning wages of at least $1,690 per month).

• You have worked a job that deducted FICA (Social Security) for at least 5 years out the past 10 years.

• You are not able to perform Full Time Work, defined as:

  • 5 days per week

  • 8 hours per day

  • On a regular and continual basis

 You need to file for your SSDI benefit BEFORE you reach Full Retirement Age.  Once you reach your FRA you cannot file for additional disability benefits.

 What if You Are Age 62 and Eligible for SSA Early Retirement?

Early Social Security retirement pensions are available starting as early as age 62.  However, these early pensions will be reduced by as much as 30 percent because you take them early (before your FRA).  A disability benefit, on the other hand, is NOT reduced but pays the full  benefit.  Thus, a disability (SSDI) benefit at age 62-65) is much better than early retirement.
