Will someone involuntarily forced out of the workplace prematurely due to disability qualifies for Social Security be eligible for an increase in benefits upon reaching a higher age bracket?

My understanding is no. When you get SS disability, you start earlier but it is the same amount.
I could be wrong, but that is what I was told.

The only change is you will get Medicare and supplements at at a reduced rate. Since, like me, you are disabled before 65, more money is taken out for the medical expenses to cover you until 65.

Soon there won't be any Social Security anyway, to this seems like an academic question.

The joke is on the younger generation who will pay in but will get no pay out. Unless Obama is elected to a 3rd term.
