How much can you earn while on SSDI?

As of 2023, individuals receiving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) can earn up to $1,470 per month in gross income without affecting their benefits. This amount may vary for blind individuals, who can earn up to $2,460 per month. Earnings above these limits can lead to a review of benefits, so it’s important for recipients to report their income to the Social Security Administration. Additionally, there are provisions like the Trial Work Period that allow beneficiaries to test their ability to work without losing their benefits immediately.
