In response to: Jeanne, When I went on SS Disability, I got my full benefits and then the next year Medicare kicked in...The month before I was hit wih tm...,my disability was for another health problem.....so when I reached 65, nothing changed. I would assume that's true for all.........if it isn't, someone will speak up and tell it like they see it! As to whether you would get your hubby's SS, I would assume that would follow same rules for all folks, you get whichever is higher. There again, I'm no authority!! I think you can work and still receive SS, but there are limits. This question would have been answered correctly and quickly had we not lost our SS genius a few tears back! Doc could talk SS backwards and forwards, and helped many of our members get their SS Disability. He is missed!!! janh I'm sorry I missed Doc. Some people have such a hard time getting the disability even started, don't they?? I really tried to find and understand what it says on-line but couldn't find anything close to what I needed. I know you can do into their office and talk to someone but that's not always a good idea, I'm thinking, because sometimes that puts a hick-up by your name! j **************Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place.
