Thanks Janke. That is a great idea. I even have a copy already. Just another thing I need to be reminded I know...

...and one of the reasons I doubt I will ever be self-supporting again. My current employment is really just an altruistic gesture on my former employer's part. It is averaging between $600-650/month, so I think I will rarely trip the $720 cap for the trial work period.

I have already reported to SSA, completed the SSA 821, and my employer has had a phone interview with SSA. I received a letter that they find me still disabled, and I will have a reevaluation in another year.
