Should a disability pension still continue even after age 65 when the disability is still there?

Saying the word "should" insinuates an opinion based question. There is an opinion portion to this, but more importantly is the factual portion.If I understand this question correctly, it is asking whether or not Disability benefits will pay out beyond age 65. The answer is that in some cases it will and and in some cases it will not.It will pay beyond age 65 if:You are disabled and receiving benefits from an individual Disability insurance policy that has a maximum benefit period of age 67 or 70. Additionally, some contracts will have provisions stating that if you become disabled at any age later than 60, the policy will pay benefits for a limited or specific number of years. You can check the guidelines of your contract to see the circumstances in which benefits would be paid after age 65.If you are disabled and receiving Social Security you may be eligible to receive benefits beyond age 65 as well. This will be dependent on your birth year.It will not pay beyond age 65 if:You are disabled and receiving benefits from an individual or group Disability insurance policy that has a maximum benefit period of to age 65.Regarding Social Security disability benefits, when they terminate at retirement age, the benefits will change from disability to retirement benefits. The primary concern at this point is how much your retirement benefits will be if you have been disabled and out of the work force for an extensive period of time.

Is the railroad retirement any good?

The railroad retirement program can be beneficial for eligible railroad workers and their families. It provides retirement, disability, and survivor benefits that are generally more generous than those provided under Social Security. However, the program is specific to railroad workers and may not be advantageous for individuals who have not worked in the railroad industry.

Can you apply for social security disability if getting social security?

When people refer to "Social Security," they general mean retirement benefits. SSDI is Social Security Disability Insurance, which is paid from the same fund, but available only to disabled people who are below full retirement age.If you're asking whether you can receive both Social Security retirement and Social Security disability benefits, the answer is no. If you meet SSA guidelines for disability, you receive SSDI until you become ineligible or reach retirement age, whichever occurs first. If you remain on SSDI until retirement, your Social Security benefits automatically convert from disability to retirement. You can't receive both at the same time.If you're asking whether you can receive private disability insurance payments after you begin receiving Social Security disability or retirement benefits, that depends on the policy. Consult with your insurance agent or employer for more information.


Can you draw as much money at 65 on Social Security retirement as on disability?

Social Security disability benefits are typically lower than retirement benefits because they are calculated on the basis of fewer years of income. When a disabled worker reaches full retirement age, his or her benefits automatically convert from disability to retirement income at the same rate. There is no windfall payment for disability.


Do you have to apply for Social Security Disability when you start getting Long Term Disability from your employer?

Yes, if your disability insurance policy has a benefit that is integrated with social insurance benefits.Most employer paid disability insurance policies are integrated with social security benefits, because of the lower premium they have to pay. Individual disability insurance plans can be purchased with or without social security integration. Benefits that are not integrated with social security benefits will not be affected whether you apply or not for social security disability benefits.

Can you receive disability from your job and disability from social security at the same time?

Yes, it is very common for disability insurance plans to include a clause for social security disability, meaning the insurance company will pay a portion of the monthly benefit, expecting that you would apply for social security benefits to pay for the "Supplemental Social Security benefits". In the event you get declined by Social Security, then the insurance company would cover the additional supplemental benefits. Employer group plans as well as individual disability insurance plans can include that clause.
