Will My Pension Reduce My Benefit Amount?
I have been receiving Social Security Disability benefits for the last 10 years during which time I divorced. In August/2016 I will turn 60 and be eligible to start drawing on my Shell pension. If I collect on my pension will my Social Security Disability check be lowered or taken away? Thanks, Jane
Jane, if you paid Social Security tax on the income your pension is based on, then it will not affect your Social Security benefit amount. Only non-covered pensions can reduce your benefit amount. Thanks, John
