Can I receive workers’ compensation and social security disability benefits at the same time?
You can receive both workers’ compensation and social security disability benefits at once. There is, however, a limit on how much can be received. Basically, in a combination between workers’ compensation and social security disability benefits an injured worker cannot receive more than 80% of what they were making in the last years of their employment before the injury. There are ways of structuring the receipt of workers’ compensation benefits in order to maximize the amount of social security disability benefits that can be received. Therefore, a consultation with an attorney who is experienced in this area is essential. Our firm provides that kind of consultation to injured workers on a regular basis.
