Can You Collect Social Security Retirement Benefits and Disability Benefits At The Same Time

A common question about Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) and retirement benefits is if you can recieve both at the same time.

Understand that you can't collect both simultaneously. SSDI is designed for individuals below retirement age facing severe disability, injury, or prolonged illness hindering work for a year or more.

SSDI seamlessly transitions to a retirement benefit at full retirement age (66 or 67). Generally, the transition maintains your full benefit without additional costs.

Find out about the possibility of switching to SSDI if you filed for early retirement benefits and later became disabled.
