Well I was raised to not take advantage of people.

I just extend it to the government, because I rather be fair.

:\

I freaking worry over paying people back for money they lend me.

Even if it is 20 dollars.

so you think that you working is somehow taking advantage of people? you would be paying into the very program you get from

Oh I didn't look at the link.

and depending on how much you make the amount you get from the ssa would decrease or remain the same

Well if someone hire me, I would helply help.

I do donate left over money to charities and help with community if it isn't physical labor.

here is the main part concerning ssi

Working and SSI Benefits
You can begin to work and continue to receive SSI benefits as long as your wages and other resources do not exceed the SSA’s income limit for SSI; however, your monthly benefit amount will be reduced in proportion to your income.

Here's how the SSA reduces your income. Both the federal benefit amount and the income limit is $750 (in 2018). The SSA will reduce your benefit by the amount of your countable income. If your only income is from your job, the SSA does not include the first $85 you earn toward your countable income.

After taking the $85 adjustment off of your income, the SSA will deduct, from your monthly benefits, 50 cents for every dollar you earn. Here is an example of a person who earns $1,180 a month from working: $1,180 - $85 = $1,095 ÷ 2 = $547.50. The individual’s monthly SSI benefit amount would be reduced by $547.50.

Your monthly benefit amount is also affected by the amount your state adds to the federal SSI payment, if any. For more information, see our article on how much SSI pays.

If your SSI payments stop because you earn too much money (that is, if your countable income is over $750 per month), but you are subsequently forced to quit work because of your disability, the SSA will reinstate your benefits without the need for a new application for a period of five years.

Like doing paperwork.

Labor hurts my neck, I could become fully paralyze from another injury to the neck.

I get chronic migraines per day.

I have to take medication to keep it in check.

T_T

Give me a computer and allow me a break every two hours.

Wait some people get 1,095 dollars for SSI?

I only get 790.

no

It’s if they are working.

the 1095 is what they are using as an example of what a person makes per month while on ssi

Ah...

So confused.

@_@

and thats after they subtract the 85 from the top then they divide it in half and remove that final number from your 750

I imagine a social worker could explain a lot of the stuff if you have one.

No one explained it to me.

After taking the $85 adjustment off of your income, the SSA will deduct, from your monthly benefits, 50 cents for every dollar you earn

What I can and can't do.

They just told me the income limit and that I shouldn't work.

so if you work and make 1000 per month

they take 85 off that 1000 then they divide it in half

so 100 minus 85 is 815 they then take 915 and divide that in half

sorry 915

that is 457.50 and thats what the take off your ssi check

So if I get 2K from my inheritance trust from per month.

That is what I would get if I left it alone and let them pay me per month.

as far as the inheritance you would be better off buying adjoining pieces of property to your homes property that is untouchable

but if you took cash per month
