yes I was aware of th at after I wrote and reread my post but here in my location the two are very similar and have the same standards for working\ticket to work program therefore I saw no need to edit my post.

regardless of what type of Social security someone has, the moment you get a job you need to report to the caseworker that you have a job, what the groos pay is and supply pay stubs for verification. this is so that the one on social security only gets what they are legally entitled to and if the person on social security gets over paid through social security they have to repay it back to t he government. this is how social security works. Even more so for SSDI because its based on ones work history. you should have gotten an information booklet that tells you all about what your responsibilities are for reporting your income and how when you applied for it. if you dont report your income its called fraud and is a crime here in the USA. your caseworker can explain all this to you and what you need to do in order to keep receiving all or part of your SSDI based on what your income through your job is going to be.
