26 Nov How do I switch from Social Security disability?

Q. I’m 63 years old and collecting disability. Can I switch to regular Social Security and how much would I receive – more or less than my disability?

A. Few things in life are simple, but this one is. There will be an automatic switchover.

“The benefit amount will remain the same,” Lynch said.
