Your SS statement includes how much you have put in for disability. It's all based on points. I, because I haven't worked in awhile have lost that option. BUT, I still qualify for retirement and if I die Jim can draw off me as a widower.

When you work they take out state taxes, fed taxes, social security and disability. Your points grow the longer you work.

If you want you can go on ssa.gov and request a statement. They will mail it to your home. It will detail out everything you are potentially entitled to.
