Calling all lovers of veterans disability lawyer
Q: Should I apply for social security disability benefits under my social security account or my deceased spouse's? A: Of course, for most people applying for social security disability, your objective is to receive the highest payments you can. Sometimes the largest social security disability payment will come from the survivor's benefits you receive from a deceased spouse's account. In other situations, the greatest social security disability payment will come from applying under your own account. In either case, you will need to determine the highest payment, as you cannot apply under both. When deciding if you want to apply under a spouse's account or your own, calculating the highest social security disability payment is an obvious first step.
