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, 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.
