I was just approved last month for disability from a injury and the said its now direct deposit or if you have no bank account the send you a debit card, each month there is electronic deposit made for that month. I should get my first check 6-8 weeks after my approval date.

I read in the paper work paperless saves millions so its now mandatory. If you were on social security for more then a year it says change over by 2012 to paperless.

The simple answer to this question is this: an individual who has filed an application for Social Security retirement benefits will receive a retirement benefit check in the month following their month of entitlement (defined as a month in which an individual meets the minimum age requirement to qualify for retirement benefits and has filed an application to receive retirement benefits). In other words, social security pays a month behind. So, for example, a benefit to which an individual is entitled for the month of January will actually be paid in the following month of February.

Social security uses your birthday to determine when you get your check. I just filed and will be 62 in May. My first check will arrive at the end of July.

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.
