How marriage may affect your adult disabled child benefits
If you receive benefits as an adult disabled since childhood, these benefits generally end if you get married. Depending on your situation, some marriages (for example, to another adult disabled child) are considered protected.
The rules vary depending on your situation, so you should talk to a Social Security representative at 1-800-772-1213 or, for the deaf and hard of hearing, our toll-free “TTY” number, 1-800-325-0778, between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. on Monday through Friday.
