I think my neighbor filed a report with SSA regarding me doing some yard work while being on SSDI. I have failed spinal fusions and my pain and function level fluctuate from week to week, and even day to day. Would this have a chance criminally? or do you think that it may just initiate a CDR review? Thanks for any thoughts on this. Samsmommy

Does your dr have documentation supporting your claim with SSDI? If so, you should be fine I would think.
Neighbors like that are so disgusting. How did you get the suspicion that she may report you? How did she know you are on SSDI? I tell no one..I told my hubby and my mom...I didn't even tell my best friend. Not that he would ever try to do something mean to me, but because if he told someone else who can't be trusted. I have back probs too. I hope everything w the neighbor turns out ok!!!!!!!!!!!! Christy |

loose lips sink ships. as long as you are still going to your doctor and being evaluated you will be ok. SS must get hundreds of these type letters a week. the less you tell people the better off you are.

I am sorry you have to deal with this aggravation. I wish I had more insight on what might come of this but I hope it's just a case of a jealous neighbor. I agree with a previous post that if you are still in treatment and seeing your doctor regularly you should be fine. All the best. |

The only thing that would be criminal is if it was intentionally defrauding the SS administration. If they find that you are not disabled you may have to pay them back, but it sounds like you have some pretty bad back problems. Do they have any video of you doing the yard work? Be careful in the future, with people like that around you don't need enemies.
This is a case where a women defrauded SSD, of course this is the extreme from your case but this is just one of many cases of what can happen. Cessation of Disability Benefits Paid to Apparently Healthy Young Woman Our investigation of a 24 year-old Title II disability beneficiary, who was entitled based on asthma, seizures, and stress, revealed that she was attending a 4-year college and was participating in school sports during the period she was receiving benefits. In fact, the woman received a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting in December 2002 and was an active member of the basketball team for 4 years, also playing soccer and running track. Her basketball coach stated the woman received a physical exam each year which showed she was in good physical and mental health. e coach also stated she participated in daily practices with no apparent problems. Videotapes of the claimant playing in college basketball games were obtained. CDI investigators interviewed the woman, who admitted making false statements to the doctors to continue receiving her disability benefits. e woman’s benefits were ceased and, because fraud was detected, there was a reopening/reversal of the initial allowance in 1999, which resulted in an overpayment of $30,018. In June 2004, the woman was indicted on one count of Social Security fraud, to which she pled guilty. In January 2005, she was sentenced to 5 years’ probation.
