Es muy común que una persona que recibe compensación laboral solicite el Seguro de Incapacidad del Seguro Social (SSDI) o el Ingreso Suplementario de Seguridad (SSI). En la mayoría de los casos, si está recibiendo dinero de la compensación laboral, esos pagos reducirán sus pagos de SSDI o SSI. En general, la reducción suele ser dólar por dólar.
Por ejemplo, Mary en Phoenix, Arizona, estaba recibiendo compensación laboral por una lesión que ocurrió en el trabajo. Su pago mensual de compensación laboral era de $450. Mary también fue aprobada para recibir beneficios del Seguro de Incapacidad del Seguro Social después de que su solicitud fuera aceptada por la Administración del Seguro Social. Mary iba a recibir $1300 al mes de su Seguro de Incapacidad del Seguro Social; sin embargo, como ya estaba recibiendo $450 de compensación laboral, su pago de SSDI se redujo a $850 al mes.
Si está solicitando SSDI o SSI, deberá proporcionar a la Administración del Seguro Social información sobre sus beneficios de compensación laboral.

Si ya ha sido aprobado para recibir beneficios de Incapacidad del Seguro Social y posteriormente se le otorgan beneficios de compensación laboral, deberá notificarlo a la Administración del Seguro Social. Es posible que el haber sido considerado elegible para los beneficios de SSDI le ayude a ganar un caso de compensación laboral.
