What is the name of your state? Massachusetts
I've been trying to research this but haven't found anything "definitive". I've been on SSDI for 3+ years. I'm still disabled - in fact more disabled than when I applied.
My question is: how does unearned income affect SSDI? Specifically, the sale of something that one has owned since before becoming disabled. The potential sale is high 5-figure or low 6-figure. At this point my interest is speculative. I do not have an actual offer - I am basing my valuation on similar comps.
But I cannot afford to lose my Medicare. I can't afford to lose the SSDI income, either, but the really BIG issue is the Medicare. So I am trying to answer this question before making any changes to my situation.
Any advice or pointers to pertinent reference material would be very appreciated. Again, this is SSDI not SSI - there is a ton of information available about all the possible ways that income can affect SSI. But there is very little about SSDI. And I don't want to take the lack of information as "no impact" and risk my Medicare.
cheers,
