Social security attorney, a primer
Q: How long can you collect social security benefits through the disability program? A: Your social security benefits will continue until one of the following events occurs. Your social security benefits will be suspended, if your injury resolves completely or enough for you to become a part of the workforce again. Some people decide they would rather not depend on social security benefits and take on regular employment in a different type of work. Benefits would no longer continue in that case. The last scenario in which social security benefits would no longer continue would be if you reach retirement age.
