Text Results - Notes

A "Note" will appear in Text Results to inform you that something has occurred or may occur that you should be aware of.

The initial onscreen Note gives you a brief explanation about the situation. If you click the "More Information" link under the Note, you can view a more in-depth explanation. (See Text Results for an explanation of how to move to and activate Text Result "More Information" links using the keyboard.)

Example:

If others receive SSDI (Title II) benefits based on your earnings record, you will receive the following Text Results Note:

Screenshot of a Text Result Note titled Note - Your actions affect benefits of others. The text body says that after completing your Trial Work Period and Grace Period, cash benefits could be stopped for both you and others receiving benefits on your earnings record when your earnings exceed the Substantial Gainful Activity Amount. It goes on to say that your eligibility for SSDI and Medicare will not stop while you are in your Extended Period of Eligibility. There is also a hyperlink to more information about Note - Your actions affect benefits of others.

Clicking on the "More Information" link below the alert brings up the following help screen:

Screenshot of the WorkWORLD Help/Information system window, shown displaying a topic titled Note: Your actions affect the benefits of others. The body text says that after you complete your nine-month Trial Work Period (TWP) and three-month Grace Period, your SSDI (Title II) cash benefit will stop for any month in which you have countable earnings that exceed the Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) amount. You should be aware that the cash benefits of others who receive benefits on your earnings record will also stop during those months. The text also explains the 36 month Extended period of Eligibility. There are many hyperlinks to additional information explaining many of the terms used in the topic.

The help screen provides additional details and further explains the Text Results Note. Each of the underlined phrases may be clicked on and will lead to details and explanations in other parts of the hyper-linked Help System.

IMPORTANT: When a note advises you to contact SSA, do so immediately.

 

IMPORTANT REMINDER: Consult with your local SSA office (and the agencies that administer any other benefits you may have) about your WorkWORLD results before you take action based on those results. If possible, you should print a copy of your inputs and outputs and have them with you when you make the call and/or go into the office.
