You can work while on disability in North Carolina as long as you report required information to Social Security Administration (SSA) officials and meet their defined income threshold. Many disabled people prefer to keep working for a variety of reasons including supplementing their income and keeping their skills current. If this is your preference, our SSD lawyer can help you understand the requirements. We can also help you understand what factors need to be reported and how and when your earned income will be deducted from your financial benefits. It can be a complex and confusing process on your own. Legal help and support along with familiarity with Social Security laws and guidelines can make the process less difficult to navigate.
