Description : I have been on SSDI for 15 years and am 65 years old. My wife just turn 62 years old and applied for SS.Does she get a part of SSDI or my life earnings?

Last Answer : I don't think so, if she is not disabled. Has your wife worked all these years? If so she would draw off of her own benefit. You need to call your local social security office and ask them ... apply for any S.S. benefit but you will forfeit around 30% by taking it earlier than full retirement age.
