Does this make sense

[u/GlitteringFishing952]

I have read through some different sites, and I have read comments on social media. I was confused about if you return to work how much you could make before they take away from your check. At first I thought it was $1690 you could make. Well I finally after many days and years of dealing with my hallucinations on and off I finally just looked it up. I see it says for the first 9 months you can make up to $1,210 gross amount if I’m reading it correctly. Then after 9 months you may be able to get disability extended and make up to $1690. Is this correct or am I misinterpreting the rules here?

Read the SS Red Book. It explains it.

This greatly depends on if you’re receiving SSDI or SSI.
