The portion of benefit called "Social Insurance Offset Benefit" can be reduced by any amounts received as disability or pension benefits.
Also, depending on the definition of total disability and any additional riders that can enhance the definition of disability, including residual or partial benefit rider, your benefit may be reduced if you have income from a different source. Normally, retirement pension does not reduce the BASE benefit, because it's not an income from an active job/ occupation.
