My son was on SSDI and they kept sending him checks for over a year after he got his letter stating that he was no longer disabled. Fortunately, he put those checks aside and was able to pay them back.

There are many recipients that are being overpaid this way. Often repayment is waived because SSA acknowledges that they adept and the recipients simply can't afford to repay the overpayments. This mean less money in the treasury. If the repayment is not waived, then it will hurt the recipient's credit.

Either way, it is lose-lose. Recipients are overpaid because they are understaffed.....only in America
