SSDI and retirement benefits

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Wed, 01/31/2018 - 14:59

I receive SSDI benefits and am eligible to receive either a monthly payout or a lump sum payout from my ex-husbands retirement based on our divorce. Will this affect my SSDI and Medicare/Madicaid?

Hi there,
It may not if your payout would be considered unearned income.
