Lets disabled people get Social Security benefits sooner, but at a slightly lower rate.
This bill would let disabled individuals choose to start getting their Social Security disability benefits sooner, instead of waiting. While they would get money during the usual waiting period, their monthly benefit amount would be slightly lower for as long as they receive payments. This provides an option for people who need financial support sooner.
Today, disabled individuals must wait a specific period after being approved before they can start receiving Social Security disability benefits. After this bill, disabled individuals would have the option to receive benefits during this waiting period. Their monthly benefit would be a set percentage of the full amount (initially 94.25 percent) and would not change later.
