What are Disabled Adult Child Benefits?
A. A disabled adult child is one who is rendered disabled between the ages of 18 and 22 and who is able to draw Social Security disability benefits on the account of an insured parent who is either retired, disabled, or deceased. The monthly rate paid to the adult child is based upon a percentage of the benefit payable to the parent. Disability is determined in the same manner as it would be for the child’s parents.
