Can I Receive Social Security Benefits On My Record While Waiting For My SSDI Appeal?

I am FRA. Can I receive SS benefits on my record while waiting for SSDI appeal?



Hi,

Yes, assuming that you meet the requirements for entitlement to retirement benefits (https://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/handbook/handbook.03/handbook-0301.html).

Best, Jerry
