Here is how you can lose your disability benefit: watch out for mandatory conditions

While it is true that Social Security Disability benefits arrive every month to households in the United States, it is also true that a retiree can lose his or her monthly benefit. In this case, there is sometimes the possibility of getting it back, but there are times when this is not possible.

It all depends on the context of the beneficiary, but it is true that a retiree who gets a Disability check can stop collecting this payment. Even so, if we know the reasons why the Social Security Administration will stop sending us the check, it will be easier to avoid this unpleasant situation. In short, we can lose our Social Security Disability check, but we can know the reasons in advance.

Avoid this to keep your Social Security Disability check

There are several situations in which the Social Security Administration may stop sending us our monthly Disability payment. Therefore, we must study all these cases well and know the best way to avoid them.

Thus, the cases in which we can stop collecting a Disability check are:

• Stop having a disability. If the reason for which we get SSDI ceases to exist then we will no longer have payments from this benefit. This can be good news because it will mean that we can return to work.
• Return to work. Even if we remain on disability, if we return to work we will automatically stop collecting SSDI checks.
• Going to prison. If we go to prison, any type of Social Security payment will stop coming into our checking account. We may be able to get our check back once we get out of prison.
• Reaching Full Retirement Age (age 67 in most cases). In this case it is impossible to collect the SSDI payment again, since we will start collecting the Full Retirement Age payment. In most situations the payment will be the same or higher.

If you avoid these situations, the Social Security payment will not stop coming and we will be able to enjoy the Disability benefit without any problems. So try to keep this in mind in your day-to-day life, because if you are in these situations you will not get your SSDI payment back in many of them.
