Can I work while my disability claim is pending in California?
You can work, but your earnings must stay below the Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) limit, which is $1,550 per month in 2024 for non-blind individuals. If you earn more than that, the SSA may deny your claim. A Burlingame lawyer can help you understand how part-time work affects your case.
