Social Security Disability (SSD) is a program designed to provide financial assistance to individuals who are unable to work due to a disability. If you qualify for SSD, you may be able to receive back pay, which is a lump sum payment of the amount owed to you from the date you became disabled to when you were approved for benefits. There are two types of SSD back pay: retroactive and past-due benefits. In this article, we will discuss these two types of back pay and how to get all of yours.
1. Retroactive Benefits:
Retroactive benefits refer to payments for the period of time before your application was approved. This period goes back up to 12 months from the date of your application. For example, if you applied for SSD on January 1, 2020, and were approved on July 1, 2020, you would be eligible for retroactive benefits for the period from January 1, 2020, to June 30, 2020. In general, the Social Security Administration (SSA) will pay out retroactive benefits in one lump sum payment.
2. Past-Due Benefits:
Past-due benefits are payments for the time period between your application approval date and when the SSA first determined that you were disabled. This can go back to the date you first became disabled, which could be several years ago. Because this period can be longer than one year, past-due benefits can be significant, and the SSA may pay them out in installments.
Now that you understand the types of back pay available, it is crucial to know how to get all of yours.
1. Work with an Experienced Social Security Attorney:
Social Security attorneys can help you navigate the complex process of applying for SSD and back pay. They can offer guidance on what information and documentation are needed to prove your disability and advocate on your behalf if your claim is denied.
2. Appeal a Denied Claim:
If your initial SSD application is denied, it’s essential to know that you have the right to appeal the decision. Appealing can result in the SSA reconsidering your case and awarding you the back pay you deserve.
3. Keep Detailed Records:
It’s essential to keep detailed records of all medical treatments, doctor’s appointments, and therapies relating to your disability. This documentation can help prove your disability and help you get all the back pay you are entitled to.
In conclusion, SSD back pay can provide much-needed financial support to those unable to work due to a disability. Retroactive and past-due benefits are the two types of SSD back pay, and to ensure you receive all that you are entitled to, it’s essential to work with an experienced social security disability attorney, appeal a denied claim if necessary, and keep detailed records of all medical treatments and appointments.
Thank you Brian!❤
I don't understand, so is the most i can get is a years worth? I'm applying under my dad and i was disabled since i was 18 in 2016 and have evidence for that and even the way the judge talked made it sound possible i can be paid all these years under my father but not under mine cause i ain't insured far enough
I received an inheritance and iam cut off ssi. They want me to prove how I spent it. But I gave it away so its gone. What can I do to get my benefits started up again
If you didn't work much and got approved for ssdi, what is the minimum you may receive monthly?
Just be happy with what you get
Are auxiliary payments issued separately from primary SSDI lump sum retro payment?
I was told by judge if I accepted it with no backpay I was approved . She had lowest case approved in state by a lot and most repremanded
I need help with representation. They have told me repeatedly since 2016 that I was denied SSDI they put me on SSI and consequently I found a letter that was an open. I don’t know my mother had got it and I didn’t have it that says that under the Social Security disability rules that I grew up, I do qualify and so now I went down to surgery. I I said that he’s better but I have says that I didn’t qualify back in 2016. Tell me well that was a long time ago not sure understand and fly peeled they’re saying I didn’t qualify and now I need representation to our plan so that when I go in for this appeal, I can be able to understand exactly what I need to bring.
The deal is….they know how desperate you are lF and BY THE TIME you are approved. Not to mention confused and blind to the system operations. Utterly surreal when it all happens and the attorney has already cashed in so no help from them anymore. On your own now. Just another stray dog that gets slung a scrap! Literally.
my LTD insurance company is going after me for 3 years of SSDI back pay. Same LTD company was supposed to pay me after SSDI started , just a lower amount, the LTD company kept 2 years of it and applied it towards the backpay total they say I owed them.Now I'm too old ( over 66) so now the LTD kicked me out and the SSDI is turning to regular retirement SS this year because of my age. Can this LTD comp garnish my SS retirement benefits ? I'm really worried because SS retirement is all I have .
Question can ssi backpay be paid out on the direct Express card
After 3 years of not working and 3 hearing they approved me at the date of my last hearing?? I can appeal in 15 days of today. I have watched you and because of your videos I was approved nov 10th 2022 stopped working nov 19 th 2019. So ?? Retro pay? Is it possible? Should I not appeal? As of nov 10th it put me in the 55 year old age group. I believe that is why I won. No back pay and citizens' disability bailed on me after nov 10th hearing. Do They get any of my checks? And retro ? Should or could I get that and not appeal? Citizens disability is a horrible company!! Trust everything this man says! His advice is the only reason after 2 hearings I won my 3rd kinda? Thank you
How does your lawyer get there backpay fees first but the client has to wait on their backpay
Social security back dated my disability onset date to November 2019 – that’s when I became disabled and the Army doctors would no longer allow me to work. I medically retired from the Army after 18 years. I applied for social security disability 16 months ago and I’m still waiting on approval. So even though my onset date is more than 12 months from the date I applied, I can’t receive more than 12 months of backpay? Also, since it’s been 16 months since I applied, will I get 16 months of retroactive pay? Or do they cap that at 12 months too? Thanks in advance!
I got approved for SSI disability on September 29 and I just today seen on my social security account how much my benefits are going to be but it doesn't say anything about back pay …
I remembered 30yrs back I had an issue with my employer(Federal Government)and was on leave without pay and I filed for assistance and was told once I get back to work I will have to pay back every dime back.I pay taxes and you have immigrants who get assistance and never have to pay a penny back.Bullshit!!
Can you get retroactive pay and no back pay
I just started an open case for disability. As well as not having a current good understanding, I'm hoping to learn the total amount of information I need.
Amazing
Thank you for that information when I applied I got turn down no one told what I would have to do to get another try for my disability I wait almost a year to file against n does that make me eligible to receive back and one of the commentaries said they got very nasty with me what do you think I should do go and try or let it go
I got approved for SSD in September but I still haven’t seen any money from them how long does it take to start seeing a check? They told me that they are trying to figure out how much I am going to be getting back in back pay
We are going into November now. Do you know if it will be much longer?
My brother has applied three times for disability and been denied twice and appealed both times. He is currently waiting on the judge to decide on his third attempt. If the judge decides in his favor, will he receive back pay from his first attempt to now (roughly 36 months)?
So angry after 3 years 2 attorneys i get 2 months ssi and then ssdi 2 months later and zero back pay.
Hello, I was just recently approved for ssdi. In the payment section on my online profile it says that I am set up for receiving a check for the back pay. I updated my direct deposit info, I was just wondering do you think SSA will send me the check like it states on the website? Or will they send it direct deposit ? Thank you *✨
I have been paying Part D since my SSI 100% rating and should not have as I am 100% disabled and get all my prescriptions through there. How can I recover that $24,000 I have overpaid?
Can my kids get back pay and if yes how far do they go back for it.
How does it work if you were receiving SSI and was switched to SSDI?
I got approved for SSDI and SSI. I already know I’m getting the SSI back payment but will I also be getting SSDI back payment ?
I’ve been getting SSDI monthly payments for 2 months already
A lot has changed with the government concerning back pay along rather or not you had any assistance in-between waiting. I was told the amount of back pay only goes only for 12 months or less (depending on when you applied for disability or SSI and when you was approve). Also, the SSA representative in my area (state) took some of my back pay and didn't tell me why when I asked. Anyway, I called the 1 800 (main number) and got info from the person I spoke with about my claim as well as told how rude and hateful the representative was towards me. The woman from the 1800 number told me the SSA representative took some of my back pay due to getting public assistance (help with my electric bill and snap benefits) in which didn't make sense at all to me. She assured me it was a legal reason without a proper or understanding cause (she wasn't for sure herself). It's all so confusing!
Do you automatically get both or do you HAVE TO take action to get the retro pay? I just got approved .
Can I get retroactive back pay if it’s been 6 months since I left my job due to the plate In my leg and I’m just now filling for scc disability
Can I get my back money back after it’s been spent without my consent. When I was little my aunt tricked me into signing a form that stated we both split the money and spent it but I never touch a penny of it. It’s a really crushing feeling being used like that by my own family
Hey Brian, when I applied for SSI my mother and I had an oral agreement that I would pay her back my fair share if ever approved. Now here we are about 3 weeks away from my hearing. Will the SSI honor this agreement and give me the full backpay from when I applied or will they only give me 2/3 since I have nothing in writing? Thank You
I got a letter saying I was supposed to get 2 backpayment checks. One for $1,944, which I received and one for $2,790, which I never received. I saw two other guys with 2 backpayment checks in their hands, but I only got the one $1,944. Is there anyway I can still get my $2,790 check or is it just embezzled??? I got approved for Social Security in 2012. Thanks!
I got approved December just got reinstated today just wondering how long for the pay back what’s your opinion
I’m on SSDI I just start receiving my first check is on December 2021 my question is I don’t know what happened to my backpay

Hey I know you're not able to respond all your messages but possibly could you respond to my text you in another video but like I said I have a 16 year old son that I'm not getting enough for him only get $560 from her so I tried writing Social Security office I'm in Charlotte North Carolina and I was finally receiving benefits and January and they told me it was going to only be $560 and they only could give me the first $2,500 full payment or back payment then in six months I'll be able to get the other 2500 then another six months I get the rest still do not understand that but if you can possibly text me or respond on here and tell me where to contact you it seems like you're the person I need to talk to because my lawyer didn't do nothing about this wasn't paying rent at the time I was living with my great-grandmother now I am she selling her house and I'm trying to find a place and there's no one that I can find a place for for $560 for two bedroom I would be greatly amazed if you could help
I'm expecting almost 7 years back pay covid slowed everything down
Question. Filed 06/2021 and as of today my online status finally states as 04/22/22 that DDS has completed the medical review. Now a rep in another state is starting a final review to make sure that you still meet the non medical requirements for Disability requirements. Which could take 2 to 4 weeks? I guess a letter will be coming with decision? Don’t want to get my hopes up since this is an initial application and I know the denial rates but does this sound normal? But they conducted a non medical review in the beginning so why do it again?
Social security will let you down…heartless
I only get $993. And no back pay
I know i should have gotten more for my disability. I was approved 2019. Thats when I started to get it
I was on that had an attorney back in 2014 he sure didn't try get me no back pay from all my then appeals.
Hello I just filled for my disability in March but I had filled back in January of 2020 then I called them and told them that I changed my mind and was going to try and work alittle longer. So when I filed in March they went back to 2019 because that was the last time I had made over 20.000 dollars in income for the year. And so I'm wondering if that could count as the 2 years your talking about? Also I'm wondering if I don't see a Dr. Regularly if that will cause my case to be denied?
Bom trabalho de notícias de tudo que acontece
I'm on California state disability and as of the 1st of April my work insurance has expired due to me not working since Jan. 3rd. What are my options?
Brian what ever happened to that lady on SSDI who got a letter saying she owed them 37 thousand bucks? Can you do a video on this and we're you able to help her?
