Disability Insurance Benefits (DIB): This is sometimes referred to as SSDI, but the official name of this program is Disability Insurance Benefits. To qualify for DIB, you must meet two basic requirements: 1) you have worked and paid in to Social Security and 2) you meet the medical disability rules. A person must have worked and paid in, through payroll deductions, to the Social Security system. Also, you must have paid in certain amounts to earn what Social Security calls “quarters of coverage.” If you have worked long enough and earned enough quarters of coverage, then you will be insured, or “covered,” for DIB. You must also show you meet the medical disability rules. The average DIB monthly payment is about $1,200.00. People who qualify for DIB benefits receive Medicare coverage.

Disabled Widow’s/Widower’s claim: A surviving spouse, and sometimes a divorced surviving spouse, can get Social Security disability benefits (DIB) from the deceased spouse’s earning record. This is called a Disabled Widow’s Benefit. In order to qualify, the surviving spouse or ex-spouse must be 50 years old, but not yet 60, and be disabled within 7 years after the deceased spouse’s date of death. There are some exceptions to this rule if the surviving spouse received mother’s or father’s benefits for caring for the deceased spouse’s children. Finally, the surviving spouse must not be due a higher rate of benefit based on his or her own earning record. If you feel you may qualify for Disabled Widow’s Benefits, please feel free to call Travis Miller Attorney at Law for a free consultation and case review.

Disabled Adult Child claim: There are certain situations where an individual can receive Social Security disability benefits from the earnings record of a parent. In order to qualify for what is called Disabled Adult Child (DAC) benefits on a parent’s record, the disabled person must be at least 18 years old and meet Social Security’s definition of disability before the age of 22. Additionally, the disabled person must have a parent who worked and paid into the Social Security system and is either deceased, disabled through Social Security or receiving Social Security retirement benefits.
