Work Incentive Programs offer special rules that make it possible for people receiving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), to work and still receive monthly payments and Medicare or Medicaid. Programs include work training, plans to save money for work-related expenses, and ways to earn more money while not jeopardizing benefits.

Plan To Achieve Self Support (PASS) is an Supplemental Security Income (SSI) provision to help people with disabilities return to work. PASS lets disabled people set aside money and/or things they own to pay for items or services they need to reach specific work goals. Plans can include money for school, training or to start a business. The goal is to have enough income to reduce or eliminate your need for benefits provided under the Social Security and Supplemental Security Income programs. The Social Security Administration does not count the money or resources you set aside under an approved PASS when they decide your initial or continuing eligibility for SSI. Having a PASS may help you qualify for SSI or may increase the amount of your SSI payment.

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) (https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/ssi) is a Federal income supplement program designed to help aged, blind, and disabled people, who have little or no income. It provides cash to meet basic needs for food, clothing, and shelter. Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) (https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/disability) provides monthly cash benefits to disabled workers who are fully insured under the program, who are not capable of substantial gainful work and who have completed a five month waiting period. Recipients may qualify for both programs at the same time, if the amount of SSDI benefits awarded are under the SSI income limits.
