A place about social security lawyer
There are no partial disability social security benefits, since SSA is designed only for people who are completely disabled and who have been (or are expected to be) disabled for at least a year. If you need partial disability, you will have to apply through a state or local disability program. If SSA denies you benefits on the grounds that you are not completely disabled, this will not bar you from applying for and receiving partial disability benefits from local and state disability programs. However, you can continue to work while receiving disability social security benefits as long as you are able to work only at a low level or for short periods of time. The state agency that handles your case will consider how much you can earn.
