What Will Happen When I Reach Age 62 If I'm Already Getting Disability Benefits?
I am 56 years old and have been receiving disability income since I was 35 due to a chronic illness. What happens when I turn 62?
Hi,
Assuming that what you're drawing is Social Security disability benefits (SSDI), then nothing will change when you reach age 62. You'll continue for receive your SSDI benefits until your full retirement age of 67, at which time they will convert to regular Social Security retirement benefits at the same rate.
Best, Jerry
