Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits for adults disabled since childhood
The SSDI program pays benefits to adults who have a disability that began before they became 22 years old. Social Security considers this SSDI benefit as a child’s benefit because it is paid on a parent’s Social Security earnings record. For a disabled adult to become entitled to this child benefit, one of his or her parents must meet the following criteria:
These benefits also are payable to an adult who received dependents benefits on a parent’s Social Security earnings record prior to age 18, if he or she is disabled at age 18. Social Security will make the disability decision using the disability rules for adults.
SSDI disabled adult child benefits continue as long as the individual remains disabled. Your child does not need to have worked to get these benefits.
