SS Disability Claim

Answered 4 years and 7 months ago by attorney Steven Neil Perrigo   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Social Security
It's not too late to file for social security disability. If approved, your benefit amount will increase to your full retirement age amount as if you waited. I recommend contacting an attorney who does SSDI law for a free consultation.

Can I reduce the amount of ss overpayed to me while working

Answered 11 years and 8 months ago by Ms. Lisa L. Lanier (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Social Security
Dear Anonymous, The overpayment will likely remain at its current amount, but you can ask that it be repaid in very small monthly amounts. In some cases, they will accept as little as $25 per month in a repayment plan. However, if you enter into a plan with them, you MUST remain current in your payments or it will void your payment plan and they will request repayment in full within 30 days. Your unemployment status does not change the amount of the Social Security benefits you received. This response does not form an attorney-client relationship, nor should it replace a full consultation with an attorney. Please be advised we cannot give full and complete legal advice without further information that is not capable of being conveyed in this format. If you would like to receive a free consultation regarding your possible legal matter, please feel free to call us at 855-234-7619.... Read More

need to know if my father qualifies for back pay since he waited 2 yrs before he received his SS benefits and continued to work?

Answered 11 years and 8 months ago by Ms. Lisa L. Lanier (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Social Security
Dear Ms. Flores, No claimant is eligible to receive back pay for those months in which they are engaged in what the SSA refers to  as "Substantial Gainful Activity" -- which means months in which your father earned more than very minimal wages. You can access the chart for wage thresholds on the ssa.gov website. If your father earned enough to be paying taxes, then he was likely gainfully employed by their standard. This response does not form an attorney-client relationship, nor should it replace a full consultation with an attorney.
