I am confused why social security defines disability as the inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months." However, if and when you are ever approved, you are able to work through their ticket to work program. Now, They (social security) when evaluating you for disability, would not allow benefits for someone who is working ‘cause that would show the person is not disabled “enough” to be eligible for benefits, so why would they allow you to work if you are receiving benefits? |

What you say is correct, whether it makes sense or not. The idea is that they want to make sure that someone is not scared to put his toe in the water and try to work, for fear of suddenly losing his check. |
