How often do I have to review my Social Security Disability benefits?
In South Dakota, a review of your Social Security Disability benefits is necessary whenever there is a chance that your disability status or benefit amount might change. Generally, reviews occur every 3 to 7 years, depending on your particular situation. If your disability is expected to last six months or less, your disability will be reviewed more often. If there is no change in your condition, you will receive notice of an upcoming review at least 3 to 7 years in advance. During this time, you should make sure to update Social Security with any changes in your medical treatment, work activities, or other income. In some cases, a review will be conducted earlier if there is cause for concern. For example, if your medical condition is getting worse, Social Security may decide to review your benefits more often. Also, if your income or work activities change significantly, a review may be necessary. In short, South Dakotans with Social Security disability benefits should expect a review every 3 to 7 years. If there is a change in your medical status or you become involved in any activities that increase your wages, Social Security may review your benefits earlier than expected. It is important to keep your information up to date so that you can maintain your benefits.
