What is a trial work period ? How to prove you are disabled and win disability benefits
A trial work period is a period of nine months in which a disability benefit recipient may assess the possibility of reentering the work force. The Social Security Administration will not look at these months as any indicator that your disability has ended.
More importantly, the nine months do not have to be consecutive, and may be any total of nine months within a sixty-month rolling period (five year period).
The criteria for a trial work month is that you have earned above the monetary trial work month amount, which is set by the Social Security Administration every year. However, if you are earning over that trial work monthly amount in the tenth month, your benefit will be stopped and your thirty-six month extended period of eligibility (EPE) will begin.
