Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | In a year's time, well over two million Americans apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (DI) benefits. One-third that number are awarded them. Close to nine million individuals currently receive such benefits. Over five million receive need-tested Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits on the basis of the same threshold test of "disability." In some cases the DI benefits are so low that the two programs, administered by the Social Security Administration, overlap. Widows and widowers who qualify as disabled are entitled to claim survivors benefits before the normal age of eligibility. Disabled children continue to be eligible for dependents or survivors benefits on a parent's account past the normal cut off age of 18. Finally, a "disability freeze" will remove periods of disability from insured status and benefit amount calculations. |
