This will depend on the type of coverage that you have, and more specifically the provisions of your coverage.

  • If you have group coverage, then the chances are very high that your benefits will offset dollar-for-dollar (100%) with any social security benefits you receive, including family social security benefits as well.
  • If you are a Federal government employee, then your benefits will be affected as stated in the FERS program. The FERS program states that 100% of Social security benefits will be offset in the first 12 months of a claim, but only 60% of SS security benefits will offset for each month thereafter.
  • If you have an individually owned policy then you will have to review the provisions of your contract. Insurance companies offer a rider known as Social insurance benefits or Supplemental disability benefits. This is essentially a monthly benefit that will be paid when you are eligible for an insurance claim but not eligible for Social security benefits. If you are eligible for SS benefits, then the benefits from this rider will offset dollar-for-dollar (100%) with any SS benefits you receive. The basic or base disability benefit that your contract provides will not offset at all with social security benefits.

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.
