If you are working part time or want to work part time, earning less than $1,070 per month — or if you wish to go to school — despite a disabling condition, you may still qualify for SSD benefits. Keep in mind that nuances may matter a great deal in such cases. For example, if you are enrolled in a university program or working part time as a Tupperware sales consultant, you may be taking on a reduced load of classes or Tupperware parties because of your disabling medical condition(s).
Under these circumstances, you may still qualify for SSD. But if you are handling an intense, rigorous load of classes or work activities, it may be difficult to verify that you have a permanent disability that keeps you from working. Testimony from your doctor(s) will be very important as you prepare to present evidence that you are unable to interact as fully with classmates and teachers (or customers) as you would have been before you were disabled.
