In 2026, in an effort to to serve efficiently, the Social Security Administration has renewed focus on
recovering overpayments.
If SSA says you were overpaid even due to agency error it may reduce monthly SSDI checks through
withholding unless waived or appealed. This can sharply cut monthly income.
If, for what ever reason, you need to appeal a decision that negatively affected your SSDI paymets, it is
important to consult with an Social Security Disability attorney to ensure the best posible outcoume.
