This week, eligible SSDI beneficiaries born between the 21st and 31st will receive over $2,000.
To qualify, beneficiaries must meet specific disability requirements and have contributed to Social Security before becoming disabled.
Monthly payments vary based on disability type, work record, and contributions. For instance, up to $2,590 is available for those meeting the SSA's definition of blindness.
Those employed before becoming disabled can receive up to $3,822 monthly. Check with a financial advisor or SSA for details.
Beneficiaries might qualify for both SSDI and SSI benefits if conditions are met.
The SSDI program supports over 7 million people, providing monthly benefits to those who contributed via FICA or SECA taxes.
Disabled recipients also get an annual cost of living adjustment (COLA) to combat inflation.
