I RECEIVE SSDI DUE TO A PERMANTLY DISSABLED RIGHT ARM AND HAND (THAT IS WHY I TYPE IN ALL CAPS, I.E., ITS EASIER); I HAVE SEVERE BACK PAIN AND I HAVE DIFFICULTY WALKING AS A RESULT OF A BROKEN NECK (FRACTURE OF C5 & C6). I STILL WANT TO WORK THOUGH... DOING WHAT, I DON'T KNOW. CAN I WORK AND RECEIVE SSDI AND IS THERE AN INCOME LIMIT? GRANT FROM GEORGIA.
Hi,
I am on SSDI since 2014, diagnosed with HIV/AIDS and neuropathy. I have an SSDI income of $2079 after med is taken out.
There is an opportunity to make some small amount of money (less than $125 per week) delivering food and/or walking dogs.
This is a perfect job because I can work when I'm ok or not work that day when I feel lousy and which is why I'm on disability.
Can I do this? Can I have this type of job?
Thanks.

I am on dialysis due to kidney failure I receive 1,045 a month from ssdi. If my income at my job is around 1,000 a month and my SGA is 1,170 what I can make am I making to much or am I okay. I only get paid 9.25 an hour at my security job. Do social security monitor your days and hours that you work or do they look at how much you bring home for the whole month. How much I shouldn't go over for the month...

HI Kathleen,
Many SSDI recipients are able to work in some capacity, however there may be restrictions on what work someone would be able to do. We really could not verify or deny his ability to work, as we are not affiliated with the SSA.

Hi Gregg,
It cannot exceed the 2017 SGA Monthly amount ($1,170/Month)
I have ssdi and would like to try to work a few hours a wk. It would definitely be under the sga limit. I'm worried that I will lose my ssdi because I read a few places that SS could still consider me able to work. I'm very frightened about even trying. I read that it's not as simple as makeing under or over the sga limit.Please offer some advice.

I make $1341 per month in SSDI. How much can i make if i take on a part time job.
In reply to I make $1341 per month in by Sandi (not verified)
Hi Sandi,
You may be able to make up to $840 before the month is considered a Trial Work Period month. If you have 9 Trial Work period months in a five year period, you may lose eligibility for benefits while you are working.
I started back to work in sept 2016 I called social security when I got the job and recently because I thought I was on a ticket to work. I received a payment in June. Am I on a different program. I make over the maximum amount income'

Hi Susie,
I would recommend speaking to a representative from the SSA regarding your matter. 1-800-772-1213.

I was diagnosed with ms in 2011 and receive ssdi. I have recently returned to work part-time 12 hrs a week doing activities with senior citizens in a senior living community. This job has been very therapeutic for me mentally and has given me some self value and helped pay my bills. I do not take any medications for my illness. Is it possible for ssdi to have me re-evaluated and determine that I could work full-time and take away my benefit? Do they ever use surveillance to justify this action? This is very stressful, because the thought of losing my benefit would be a major problem for me. Thank you.

Hi Sam,
The SSA may re-evaluate cases periodically as part of their normal procedures, however from what you've described, you may not have any issue with the SSA determining that you're able to work.
Hi Bryan,
Thank you for the response. Do you know types of cases and the procedures used by the SSA that they periodically evaluate?
