CDB003 – USED ON CHILDHOOD DISABILITY BENEFIT (CDB) AWARDS TO EXPLAIN TRIAL WORK PERIOD

If you work while you are still disabled, you may qualify for a trial work period to test your ability to work. During this period, you may work 9 months, sometimes more, and not lose Social Security disability payments because of the work, no matter how much you earn.

To end the trial work period, the 9 months of work must take place in a 60-month period. The months do not have to be in a row. After the trial work period has ended, we will look at the work you did and decide if you are still disabled.

Please refer to the Publication section of this notice to access pamphlet “Working While Disabled: How We Can Help” for more information about the trial work period and other rules that may help you return to work.
