Can SSD benefits be lowered if you marry someone also on SSD?

Yes, if both spouses are receiving Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits, it may affect the total amount received, particularly if one spouse's benefit is based on the other’s work record. When two people on SSD marry, their combined income may be evaluated differently, potentially leading to a reduction in benefits if they exceed certain income thresholds. However, each individual's SSD benefit is calculated based on their work history, so the impact varies depending on their specific situations. It's advisable to consult with a Social Security representative or financial advisor for personalized guidance.
