i was told that you cant work part time or even volunteer for free because this would prove that you can work a little. they can take your disability away or not approve it.
i have a bad headache somaybe this isnt making much sense, hopefully you understand what i am trying to say.
good luck,

I worked PT almost the whole time I was waiting for my decision. You can make up to $980 per month before they start to deduct from your monthly benefits. A matter of fact when I first applied and got denied the first time in the deniel letter from the SS Office they stated I should try and work PT, which I did exactly what they said. When I got an attorney to do the appeal and then got a "Fully Favorable" decision he felt it worked to my benefit that I at least tried and continue to work PT on the books. I get my s.s. check every month without any deductions...Please check with your attorney or you local SS Office before you change anything if you are fighting a deniel.
You do have to be very carefull when yo do work PT not to go over that $980 per month. My previous post on this subject explains what happened to me.
Good Luck to all,
