Hi Shirley,
You would be able to earn up to $840 a month before SSDI benefits would be affected.
I'm on as I and fit 738 a month. I've got an opportunity to pick blueberries for a two to 4week period and pay is buy the pound and I can work at my own pace and will get paid accordingly. How much can I make before it messes with my as I money. Thanks

Hi David,
You may want to check in with your local SSA office regarding this, but if you're on SSI they may reduce your benefits by one dollar for every two that you make.
If you get $832/month, is that SSI, or SSDI? ALSO, can you ever receive both SSDI and SSI? Simply not enough to live on even though we have downsized as far as we can go unless we move to a shelter. Thank you for any response.

Hi Robin,
In certain circumstances, one can receive SSI and SSDI benefits at the same time.

I am posting for my sister who suffers from Acromegaly, a pituitary disorder. She has worked hard all her life and now the disease is really taking a toll. She has to take multiple daily shots to keep her growth hormone level down but the price tag is without insurance is ~14K. She has been a rock star orthodontist assistant for almost 27 years and has paid $500 a month covering through her employer to cover the meds. We are very worried that 'when' the day comes she can no longer work, would SS disability cover this life required medicine?

Hi Veronica,
There is no limit on how many hours you can work, but you cannot exceed the monthly SGA limit which is $1,170/month

I am currently on SSDI and do not want to lose it, or have it reduced. I would like to work part time just because I am not making enough with these benefits ? Can I work if the monthly income is about $750 a month? I know I would need to report this. What should I do?

Hi There,
You won't lose or have your benefits reduced if you don't exceed the 2017 SGA limit.

I receive SSSI but don't have enough money with this. I would like to work part time but I don't want to lose my benefits. What should I do? Can I work part time and make less than $820 a month with no changes in benefits?

You may be able to, but I would check in with the SSA first.

I have MS and Rheumatoid Arthritis and have been on SSDI since 2001 can I work part time and how many hours?

Hi Lisa,
There would only be a limit on earnings, you would be able to earn up to $1,170 a month, however if you earn over $840 a month the SSA may change your benefits. It may be a good idea to contact the SSA if you're planning to go back to work.
At the age of 66 i receive SSDI due to a back and heart condition. I've received benefits since I was 63 yrs old but finding hard making it on my benefit check now. Can I get an part time job to help me out? I don't want to jeportize my SSDI I receive now. Thanks
