Do I Need To Contact Social Security Or Does My SSDI Convert To Retirement Benefits Automatically?
I am on SSDI and work part-time. My FRA will be May 2021.If I can still continue working , do I contact Social Security or does my SSDI convert automatically to a retirement check?
Hi,
As long as you continue to qualify for Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits until you reach full retirement age (FRA), your SSDI will automatically convert to regular retirement benefits effective with the month you reach FRA.
Once you reach FRA there will be no limit on the amount that you can earn and still collect your benefits. However, whether or not you can be paid SSDI benefits prior to FRA depends on the amount of your earnings and whether or not you've completed your trial work period. For additional information on working while receiving SSDI, refer to the following Social Security publication: https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-10095.pdf.
Best, Jerry
