I get “SSDI” for my mental illness and my young sister has a medical illness and was getting it as well. She went to the SSA office and asked how much she was allowed to earn from working part-time. The rep told her an amount. My sister started working and a year went by. Then she received a letter saying she owed them $5,000.
They also cut off her SSDI and Medicare. I knew better. I worked as a social worker for ten years. When that rep from SSA told my sister the amount but did not give it to her in writing...hell no. My sister is still paying them back.
