A) According to Social Security Administration: Special rules make it possible for people receiving Social Security disability benefits or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) to work and still receive monthly payments. And, if you cannot continue working because of your medical condition, your benefits can start again—you may not have to file a new application.
Work incentives include:
• Continued cash benefits for a time
while you work;
• Continued Medicare or Medicaid
while you work; and
• Help with education, training
and rehabilitation to start a new
line of work.
The rules are different under
Social Security and SSI. http://www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/EN-05-10095.pdf
I have been trying for TWO YEARS to make contact with SSA re my pension. I have eMailed, telephoned and written letters as well as havion g my bank FAX documents according to your directives. NONE were ever acknowledged or responded to. I have changed my address and all future mail from SSA will soon be returned to SSAA «address unknown». THis is a ridiculous situation and ALL phone numbers provided on your dysfunctional website are not usable in Canada.
PLEASE contact me and provide some means of EFFECTIVELY changing by address and banking route.
Thank You,
