The fact that your grant got approved first time says only that you uncluded all the iunformation that they needed fro them to make an objective decision as to if you need their help or not. many SSDI applicants get turned down just because they did not complete the paperwork correctly, or they didn't follow through with seeing all the specialists needed for determining if their own claims of disability are true. you saw the right doctors and filled in the paperwork in such a way that they found YOUR OWN statements to be true so they put you through the first time.

Having SSDI doesn't mean you can no longer work. you just now work with what your disability limits you to. If you get a job you will be put on a "monthly mailer" program where each month you mail in your pay stubs and the next months check will be prorated to reflect that they removed from your SSDI check the amounts that you earned through working. and depending on how much you make your foodstamp benefits that are included in the SSDI package may also be reduced. If you are working for 12 months then you will lose your SSDI grant completely because that will once again make you according to the states as not being disabled qnd needing the grant anymore.

hang in there
