At What Age Will Social Security Transfer My SSDI Benefit To SSI?
I'm 56 years old on ssdi been on ssdi for 3 months what age wil they transfer me over to ssi?
Hi,
Just to be clear, SSDI is the abbreviation normally used for Social Security disability benefits. SSI is used as the abbreviation for Supplemental Security Income, which is a needs based benefit administered by Social Security. SSDI benefits would never convert to Supplemental Security Income (SSI), although a person could qualify for both SSDI and SSI if their SSDI rate is very low.
If you're receiving SSDI now at age 56 and you continue to be entitled to those benefits until your full retirement age (FRA) of 67, your SSDI benefits will be converted to regular Social Security retirement benefits at the same rate at that time.
Best, Jerry
