If (1) your daughter was disabled both before and after age 18 and (2) before she turned 22 you applied for her to receive SSDI based on a parent's work record, when you became disabled or retired, she would receive the equivalent of half of your SSDI without affecting the amount you receive. When you die, she would receive the equivalent of three-quarters. Note that this particular disabled adult child SSDI trust fund is expected to have insufficient funds to pay these amounts beginning in 2026.
