Home Estimators Glossary Videos My Vault Working With a Disability Disability Benefits 101 gives you tools and information on health coverage, benefits, and employment. You can plan ahead and learn how work and benefits go together. Welcome to DB101 (short video) Getting Past the Myths: The Truth About Working There are many myths about people losing their benefits if they work that are just not true . Managing Your Benefits While Working By keeping good records and quickly reporting any changes in your income, you can successfully work and manage your benefits. How Health Benefits Work Learn about the different ways you may be able to get health coverage. Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) SSDI gives cash benefits to people who worked and paid Social Security taxes before their disabilities limited their ability to work. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) SSI gives cash benefits to people with disabilities and seniors who have low income and low resources. Housing Section 8, public housing, site-based housing, and other programs help pay for housing. Building Your Assets and Wealth Learn about programs that can help you build your savings without risking your disability benefits. ABLE Accounts A tax-free ABLE account lets people with disabilities save some money without affecting their benefits. Resources for Veterans Vets Checklist: Planning for Civilian Life Going from military to civilian life isn’t easy, but a good plan can make things smoother for you and your family. VA Disability Compensation VA Disability Compensation gives tax-free monthly payments to veterans who have an injury or disease that happened while on active duty or was made worse by military service. VA Pension VA Pension offers monthly payments and other benefits to low-income, wartime veterans who are seniors, or have a permanent disability that is not connected to their military service. Family members of deceased vets may also get benefits. Estimators Benefits and Work Estimator What happens to your income, benefits, and health coverage if you go to work?
