New Rules for Working While Applying for Social Security Disability
What are Social Security's NEW RULES for WORKING while you are applying for disability?
This is a very common question.
Under SSA's rules, earnings less than the SGA "substantial gainful activity" limit should not be counted against you. As of this writing, SGA is equal to $1,350 per month in gross earnings.
And this amount changes every year. (Check online for the most current figure.)
As I discuss in this video, however, on-going earnings at or close to the SGA limit may very well hurt your case. HURT YOUR CASE.
Why? Because your disability judge may believe that your earnings are not at or over the SGA amount because you have refused more hours or because additional hours are not available to you.
By contrast, an unsuccessful work attempt (UWA) can help your case, even if your earnings are over SGA for a month or two.
You can probably sense that SSA's rules about earnings and the "real life" impact of trying to work are not the same. I advise my clients to call me if they intend to try to return to work so I can help them avoid a situation where they are earning enough to negatively impact their case, but not enough to pay the bills.
If you are not represented and have questions about working while applying for disability please reach out to me for a FREE case evaluation right now. I can only take so many cases per month, so please don't delay. Act now!
