Return To Work
The Social Security disability insurance program is unique in its ability to allow recipients to attempt returning to work without permanently losing his or her benefits.
While it is true that many people who suffer total disabilities remain disabled for the rest of their life, sometimes there are exceptions. For those individuals, the Social Security disability insurance program has the ability to get workers back to full time employment through various rehabilitation programs and also by providing the economic circumstances necessary to facilitate a return to work.
A recipient could actually continue to receive Social Security disability checks while trying a series of different jobs for up to two weeks of every month. This can be done until the recipient finds a job they can perform given his or her disability. After a trial work period, Social Security Administration will review a case in question to see whether the person has become able to be gainfully employed once again. Sometimes when a dispute over what is gainful arises, a Phoenix personal injury attorney has assisted.
At times, it may be important for the recipient to note that any months in which a person does not earn more than $720 or spend more than 40 hours in self employment, do not count as trial months.
