How about looking for a part time remote job which I think Unaluna mentioned are like mini project managing.

Apply and see what happens.

Customer service type but where you don’t need to talk to people but just solve their issue via chat?. Ask SSI how much you could make without losing benefits, and work for a few days/months few hours a day. If it seems ok then you’ll have a good idea what to do next.

You also have to remember that interview process could be brutal if you go for high pay job (I know you keep saying it’s not high, but 121k a very well paid job anywhere in the state). More you want to make, more brutal your interview will be. Likely more than one for each job position if you pass the first round. But the interview process for lower level jobs (not talking about minimum wages) is much easier so you’ll have a good practice with those

And blueberry is right, it will be very hard to compete with regular college graduates with job experiences if you went to somewhat obscure online schools with strange combination of classes and international MBA for less than 1k and have no or little work experience.

But do talk to ssi first. You said you lose ssi if your husband makes as little as 20k
