Hi Jeremy,
Yes, this would be earned income, so that would be factored in as well.
Sorry for so many questions if I go over the trial work period amount because some months have five weeks then I will probably run out of twp in 4 years or so...from what I can read I would go into an epe for 36 months what happens after that? And does social security ever say that since u can work part time u can work full time....with my mental conditions I don't think I could handle that and my psychiatrist and therapit think so too

Hi Jeremy,
After the TWP, if you earn anything over SGA once, you will lose your benefits, but there will be a period of rapid reinstatement if you find you can no longer work shortly after. So long as you avoid using all for your trial work months, you should be ok.

Hi Skeen,
This is an excellent question, and one I unfortunately do not know the answer to! I would recommend contacting the SSA at 1-800-772-1213 to inquire about this.

Hi there,
You may only lose your SSDI if you are earning over $1,130 a month or if you are performing work that the SSA had determined that you were unable to do.

Hi Lawrence,
You may be able to go back to work, however you may want to contact the SSA to see what the limits for your specific case would be. You can find a listing here:

Hi There,
You may be just fine, the SSA may consider his part time work an attempt to return to work that was not successful in their view. It may be a good idea to get in touch with the SSA and ask them their policies about working while receiving benefits.
I have been unable to work for 2 years But doctors can't find out what's wrong with me, I was making good money at The career I'm in but no longer could do that kind of work, I'm going to try and do something that takes no physical effort, They Think it's neurological But don't see any signs of MS or anything Wrong, Can I get disability, Should I file? I have depleted most of my savings And wondering what to do. Thanks Dave

Hi Dave,
You may want to file, and it may be a good idea to contact a disability attorney or advocate, they can help you through the application process, and fight for you if you need to appeal their decision. You can get in touch with one by filling out this form:

I applied for ssi and ssdi in august 16 and was approved in december. I was told i would receive ssi but online it says my payment for jan 2017 is 0.00 but has a one time payment of a few hundred for ssi backpay i guess. I work a part time job that brings in 630 monthly to support me and my 3 children. I was told i was approved for ssdi as well but am not in pay status yet and told the amount. It is enough that i wont receive ssi anymore but i cant suffice off of just that amount. Can i keep my job to supplement income or will my children receive benefits from me? so that i can make it through and not work because its hard i cant take my meds and work and i hurt all 3 hours a day that i do work. If they receive benefits we can suffice but i was wondering will they?

Hi Nicole,
Your children may be eligible for benefits based off of your work record, and you may be able to continue working while receiving benefits. You may want to contact your local SSA office, they can give you details about what you would need to do to keep working and still receive SSDI benefits.

Hi John,
So long as you are not in violation of the SSA's guidelines, you may not lose your benefits if you file your taxes.
I have a pt job I've been on ssi for 5 yrs. I just started doing pt. How many hrs a day or week can I do? I know the 1st 9 months you can't go over $840( TWP) how much can I make a month to not loose my ssdi
In reply to I have a pt job I've by angel (not verified)
Hi Angel,
If you're on SSDI, then you would need to make less than $840 a month to ensure that the SSA does not consider you in a trial work period.
I have been working pt 4 8months making roughly $700 a month my employer makes special considerations 4 my disability my question is can i still work after 9mo is up & still receive my ssdi?
