What happens if I return to work?

Social Security regulations require that you be unable to work for twelve consecutive months.  If you return to work prior to that timeframe, there will be no claim.  Once you have passed the twelve month mark, and you return to work, you will still have a Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) claim, however, the structure of that claim will change.

If you are eligible for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) only, and you return to work, your SSI benefits will be adjusted according to any income you receive.
