i was just approve for social security for my rsd and i got it in the reconserdertion state wow but i got a letter stating that my kids would be getting the same amount of pay as me if i apply for them so i called and the person said that i am geting the max amount and that if i fill out the appt for them they would get approved but because i am geting the max they would not get any money? that does not make any sense? i thought that if i was getting ssd my kids would get it also. i am married and he does work and i am not getting ssi if that helps, thank you for your help michelle

I did not realize this. I am not bragging but I also get great money on disability and my kids get exactally half of what I make.

There is a formula for the family maximum based on the years of work by the worker. A younger worker who has the bare minimum of quarters needed to be insured for SSDI may end up with a family maximum amount that is equal to the primary insurance amount (the amount paid to you). When that happens, there is nothing for the children. In a survivor claim, there could be money for the children, but that is not the case here. http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/COLA/dibfamilymax.html |
