[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3939165, member: 26737"] I once talked to an attorney about disability, a casual conversation in relation to him getting disability, not me. He said the SSI is reduced by your earning potential and by any other benefit payments (namely, retirement), and, specifically in regards to retirement payments, that your SSI payment is reduced as soon as you become eligible to collect them. (He said they did that because retirees would try to collect SSI to delay taking retirement payments.) He said he was a "slam dunk" to collect SSI due to serious health issues, but because he was eligible to collect from his pension, and the pension payments would be greater than the SSI amount, he wouldn't net anything. This was about five years ago, so things may have changed, but we lost him about a year ago, so I can no longer ask him any follow-up questions... [/QUOTE]
