If you want to double check you can find the info on ssa.gov under oasdi and SSI program rates and limits

Thanks for your response starznight!
I've been living with him and his mom (not something either one of us are proud of, but aiming to get our own place soon) for a couple years now. I pay my own expenses and give his mom 200 a month as rent. I pay for my way. He pays for his. Social security is aware of my living arrangements.. and the lady I talked to the other day at SS said that I would send more work info to them at the end of the month. I hope everything will work out on both sides.. I missed working, but it's something I have to be careful with so I don't send myself into another horrible exacerbation. They gave me ssdi after seeing my most recent mri. Tons more lesions and a semi big hole in my cervical spine. Those don't bother me as much as the brainstem lesions.. that's a very important part of the brain and I hope so much the ms won't continue eating away at that area. Sigh.
