Default Question on Social Security Income
I will be applying for SSDI within the next couple of weeks.

My husband passed away in 2001 (he was 47 then - would be 54 now). Will I be able to collect his Social Security that he would have gotten at his retirement age? I am only 47 now - I was/am seven years younger than him. Will the case worker at SSDI need to know this and will this be decucted from my SSDI payment?

Thanks to anyone who can help!
