VA BENEFITS + SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY PAYMENTS

Are you a disabled veteran or wounded warrior?  Has the Veterans Administration awarded you a 50 percent or higher disability award?  You may also be eligible to double your monthly benefits by applying for SSDI, which is Social Security disability.

Social Security can pay you as much as $2,861 per month in addition to your VA benefit.  And if you have dependent children under the age of 19 and still in school, they may qualify for up to $1,430 in addition to the primary claimant's benefit.

Military personnel in all branches of the armed forces pay into the Social Security trust fund and are insured against disability.  SSDI benefits do not reduce VA benefits or vice versa.

Some Things Veterans Should Know About SSDI

• SSDI requires a total disability, not a percentage, like the VA.
• Social Security has its own application and rules for approval.
• It may be possible to apply for SSDI while still receiving active duty military pay.
• You may not continue to work at substantial gainful activity while receiving SSDI payments; which is different than VA rules.
• Disabled veterans are frequently denied by Social Security and must go through the appeal process to get approved for SSDI.
• The Forsythe Firm wins a very high percentage of disabled veteran's claims in the appeal process.
• There can never be a cost for legal representation in SSDI claims until you win and recover back pay from Social Security.  

The Forsythe Firm is located next to Redstone Arsenal's gate 9, just inside Research Park, and directly across from Bridge Street.  We are veteran friendly, veteran savy and dedicated to getting your SSDI approved.  Initial consultations are absolutely free and at no cost and no obligation.  We are one phone call away.
