According to my SS Benefit statement booklet, my regular SS (retirement) amt is lower than my SSDI amount. When I turned 62 a few years ago, I received a letter of SS asking me which amount I wanted at the time of my "full retirement" (age 66). I picked the higher SSDI amount.
Earlier this year, I got the same letter but asking this time if I still wanted the SSDI "retirement" amount.

I am assuming I will be getting the same letter confirming the amt I want until 2016 which is the year I turn 66 my full retirement age.
