No, getting married will not have an effect on a person who is receiving (or applying for) social security disability benefits (also known as SSD or SSDI for short). However, an individual who is receiving SSI (supplemental security income), or applying to receive SSI, may potentially be affected if they get married. SSI is a needs-based program and so not only will an applicant or recipient's income count toward their eligibility to receive benefits, their spouse's income will count as well. The process of counting a portion of an SSI spouse's income for the purpose of determining eligibility to receive benefits is known as deeming.
