I just checked on google and I typed in the question. "Will I lose my disability check when I turn 65?" and a whole bunch of links came up.

I found an answer that says "Nothing changes"

So why are you losing your check?

LTD (Long Term Disability) is an insurance policy that has nothing too do with SS or SSDI. Its paid thru Insurance Companies. LTD usually runs out at age 65. Some people have LTD policies that are much shorter.Sorry if there was a mis-understanding.
