Your question brings up another one ............what does SSDI feel about the minimum wage you could make ? Meaning $7/hr x 40 week = $280. Per month that would be $1120. I make $1700 with SSDI, plus my kids get benifits. If I could stuff envelopes (which I can't), would they expect me to work ?

Obviously, SSDI is designed for when we can't work at all.....but if our conditions improved to where we could work some, then what does SSDI do ?

I know the ticket to work covers the trial of working, but if, say, you could work 2 hours a day permanently and make $500 month......would they pay you SSDI rate minus $500, or are you just off SSDI ?
