You may - HOWEVER - you are limited to making only a certain amount of income if you wish to keep receiving SSI. To be eligible for either ssd or ssi disability, a claimant must have a condition that is severe and prevents them from working at any one of their past jobs, or working any other type of job, while earning at least a certain amount each month. Substantial Gainful Activity is simply the dollar amount that a disability beneficary (SSI or social security) may earn each month while simultaneously maintaining eligibility for benefits. The reasoning behind this seemingly arbitrary amount is this: it is the view of the social security administration that an individual who is able to earn at least this amount per month is able to engage in competitive employment in the national economy.
Currently, the SGA amount for 2008 is $940.00.
Beneficiaries who wish to maintain their eligibility for ongoing disability benefits, must be careful not to exceed the SGA amount, i.e. gross monthly earnings of $940.00. See: http://www.disabilitysecrets.com/the-rules.html
Yes, most states allow unemployment claims if you are working part time. The only thing you need to find out is how many hours can be worked a week without making your claim invalid. Also be aware that your unemployment amount will be based on how much you make so the more you make, the less you get.
Another answer:Most states allow you to collect unemployment if working part time, under certain circumstances. Some may have you collect on a former employer if you are still in the benefit year and you had claimed unemployment before your present job. Much depends on the state you work in and their criteria. Contact your state unemployment office for clarification.Yes you can collect unemployment if you work part time. Myself and my neighbor are both working part time and we collect it. As long as you don't make too much they will pay you the balance of your weekly amount.
Yes, you can but there are usually limitations about bow much you can earn. It depends on the country in which you reside.
If you lived in the US, for example, you can only earn $1010 a month or less. Look at Sources and Related Links for more details.
Yes you can as long as you don't go over the limit for money being earned.

Social Security Disability Income is a Federal program. The rules are the same for all states. This site, in the Related Link below, may be able to answer some of your questions,
You will need to check this with your local Social Security facility.
It doesn't cost anything to get social security disability. It can take some time to be approved for the benefits, but if you truly need them you do have the right to try and get them.
Don't think so, but go to the social security website for help. You need 40 quarters to collect social security and be 65.
Yes, it is very common for disability insurance plans to include a clause for social security disability, meaning the insurance company will pay a portion of the monthly benefit, expecting that you would apply for social security benefits to pay for the "Supplemental Social Security benefits". In the event you get declined by Social Security, then the insurance company would cover the additional supplemental benefits. Employer group plans as well as individual disability insurance plans can include that clause.
The social security office will check to make sure that the person is entitled to social security payments, that he is fully covered, what his illness is, can he work at least part time. They will do a complete check on the background, the type of work they do, how much they earn and more. It can take months before they get back to you so be patient. Then you will not know if you qualify or not. It is not easy to get social security disability checks these days.
The is no time limit, because there is no state disability insurance in Texas. State disability, where mandated, is typically short term coverage. Federal, or Social Security Disability is for long term disabilities and is available in all 50 states. You may be eligible for this coverage. Check out the social security website for details.
No. Someone cannot receive both Social Security retirement and disability benefits at the same time. Social Security Disability Insurance provides monthly benefits to individuals who are under full retirement age (age 65 and/ or older) and who can no longer work because of a severe disability. The impairment must be expected to last for more than 12 months.
Yes it is possible to draw disability and work part time; however there are certain restrictions you need to be aware of. This site may be able to answer some of your questions, http://www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/10095.html
You can elect to discontinue Social Security disability benefits at any time; however, you may have to pay a visit to your local field office to prove you are the person to whom the check or deposit is issued.
Only if you weren't qualified for either one of them.
sure if the government pays for yu some times....
