How much can you make before losing benefits?

The amount you can earn before losing benefits varies widely depending on the specific program and your location. For example, in the U.S., Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) allows beneficiaries to earn up to a certain amount, known as the Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) limit, which was $1,470 per month in 2023. However, programs like Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) have different income thresholds based on household size and state. It's important to check the specific guidelines for the benefits you receive to understand the income limits that apply.
