When will my Social Security disability benefit payments stop?

A:

You will continue to receive Social Security disability payments until you reach retirement age, become employed, or become healthy enough to work.

Depending on your health condition, the Social Security Administration (SSA) will review your medical information and your case periodically to determine whether or not you still need support. This could be as often as every few months or as rarely as every seven years.

If you reach the age of 65 and are still suffering from a disability, you will stop receive Social Security disability payments and begin receiving Social Security retirement payments.

If you believe you are well enough to return to the workforce, or if you begin a Sustainable Gainful Activity (SGA), you must contact the SSA so that they can review your case and change your disability benefits accordingly. If you are unsure if you are well enough to work, or if you would like to return to the workforce for a trial period, call your local Social Security office to speak with someone about your case.
