What Will Change When I Turn 62 If I Receive Social Security Disability Benefits?

I like to know what my social security change right now I'm receiving social security disability and I will be 62 next year and I want to know is it going to change

Hi. Nothing will change when you turn 62. When you reach your full retirement age (FRA) of 67 your Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits will automatically convert to regular Social Security retirement benefits, but your benefit rate won't change when that happens.

Best, Jerry
