If I have a 70% disability rating, can I be working part time?

Answer by  Taylor (863)

I wouldn't suggest it because of your rating but you could. Just make sure you are not making more than $600 a month or your benefits will be cut.

If you feel like you can work, and if you can find a job that you can do then you can work. The only problem you may run into is if you draw a check. You can check with the disability office and see how many hours you can work.

It depends upon the source of the rating. If it is a VA rating, which is the most likely possibility, then there is no problem with working, as long as you are not showing that you actually can do things that the rating says you can't.

Yes you can work. If your 3 parts of the body are in working condition. The parts are eyes, ears and hands. These are the main 3 parts needed to do work. I mean you can do normal works and not hard. For online work this parts are sufficient.
