Actually, you are permitted to work when you receive social security disability. You simply need to make sure that your gross monthly earnings do not exceed the SGA (substantial gainful activity limit) that has been set for the year. The SGA amount lately tends to be adjusted with each successive year (for 2006, this amount was set at $860) and to find out the current SGA amount you simply need to contact the social security office. In any month that your earnings exceed SGA, you will not be eligible to receive social security disability benefits. However, it should also be said that individuals who are working and receiving disability benefits may be using up their trial work months. You only get 9 months for your trial work period in a rolling 5-year period and earning less than SGA can make a month count as part of this trial work period. In 2006, making over $620.00 in a given month made the month count as a trial work month. Disability Lawyer Help on disability Claims Free Case Evaluation |
