Social Security Disability Benefits. If youâre getting disability benefits, you can earn up to $1,010 per month without losing your benefits as of 2012. If you are blind, the amount you can make increases to $1,690 a month before your benefits are terminated. Different rules apply if youâre 55 or older and considered blind.
The âearnings testâ essentially says recipients who still work and havenât reached full retirement age can have their Social Security payments reduced if they earn more than a certain amount. If you are taking Social Security benefits now and wonât reach full retirement age after 2017, the exempt amount you can earn for working has gone from $15,720 to $16,920, an increase of 7.6%. But any $2 you earn over that threshold will result in a $1 benefit reduction.
