Social Security Disability and stipends

[flyboynm]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? VA

I am on Social Security Disability. I am being recruited via my school for the TaLK Scholarship Program to Teach English in Korea for a 6 month term. The scholarship pays a stipend every month "which includes the month stipend and allowances to support teaching duties and learning experiences about the Korean culture."

Does Social Security view stipends paid as income in instances such as this program?

What all is being provided under the program besides the stipend, and how much is the monthly stipend? Will you be getting housing, food, transportation?

I am trying to get a link to a sample contract I saw earlier to answer the question but I am having problems. It is the TaLK program of Korea. I am having problems with my PC but you can get the info and see a sample contract off this site: http://www.epik.go.kr/

Thank you in advance!
