I just got hired by a movie theater and the pay is like 300.00. On the paperwork it says if i receive SSI I put yes. Now, I wanted to know will this only affect me on? Because my mom and two siblings don't work at all.

hi Julio,
it would really depend on your monthly earnings and how much of that is considered "countable income", you may experience a change in benefits due to the new income. I would contact your local SSA office, they would be more familiar with your case and could provide more insight.

63 years old on SSID have been for awhile. Was ask if I would like to make a little extra money as a vendor when they needed extra help you also sign a W-9 form wil this affect my Medicare and social security? and if not what's the amount you can earn over your social security monthly?

Hi Kathy,
You may be able to earn up to $850 a month without any change in benefits.
Hi. I'm hoping you can help me understand something. According to the Social Security site, a trial work period is triggered if you're making more than $810 a month and that after 9 months of this, you're considered no longer disabled. However, it also says that in order to be considered substantial gainful activity(SGA), the amount earned is more than $1,130. Is this SGA just used when the person is being considered to receive SSDI? Otherwise, even keeping the amount earned under $1,130, the person would be considered no longer disabled due to the trial work period rules? Am I understanding this right?

Hi again Jackie,
You would still be eligible for benefits after the trial work period for 36 months. However, you would only get benefits for months where you earned under the $1,130 benefit limit.

Hi there,
You may earn up to $1,130 a month on top of your SSDI benefits.
My husband has been signed off by his doctor as terminal. He was approved right away by Social Security, so he is on SSDI. The life insurance policy he had through work is offering to pay him a lump sum of up to half the insured amount, which will enable him to sort out all his finances and get peace of mind. Question is, will receiving a lump sum of say $75k affect his SSDI?

Hi Sue,
I'm sorry to hear that! Your husband's SSDI benefits would not change due to the lump sum.

Hi Louise,
You may be able to work part time. If you make over $810 a month, your benefits may change. If you make under that $810 a month, your benefits should stay the same.

I have diabetic neuropathy, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, arthritis and back problems. It is so hard working anymore. My questions is how is a person to survive the waiting period without any income coming in or can you work till approved.
In reply to I have diabetic neuropathy, by Bruce (not verified)
Hi Bruce,
You can work during the waiting period, but if you are able to earn more than the $1,130 substantial gainful activity limit per month, you may be determined to be able to work.
