    Disabled on ssi
    Hi guys I have a question, I have been disabled since I was 14, and I receive ssi, recently my father has retired and in a few months will be receiving a monthly check for that, but my question is do I get that in place of ssi or do I get both?

    How old are you?

    I believe you are receiving SSI based on limited financial resources, not on your father's account. That would not change.

    You receive SSI because of your disability. When you reach 62 or older then you can retire
