Age - Blind - Age 55

If you are a blind individual between the ages of 54 and 65, then engaging in Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) will not affect your eligibility for SSDI (Title II) as long as your skills and abilities are different from what they were before age 55 or before the onset of blindness, whichever is later.

You will not receive a cash benefit for months in which you engage in SGA, but you will not be terminated nor lose Medicare eligibility because of SGA. Note that if you receive your SSDI (Title II) benefit only because of this provision, then you do not qualify for a Trial Work Period.
