Update: 2021 Trial Work Period

We’re sure you’ve heard this myth: "If my benefit payments stop because I started making money through work, and then I have to stop working because of my disability, I will have to reapply for benefits all over again."

Our 2021 Trial Work Period (TWP) fact sheet can help you bust this myth! Share it with your Ticketholders who receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) to answer their questions about the Ticket to Work (Ticket) Program and explain the TWP.

We’d like your help sharing the TWP fact sheet on social media. Here are some sample posts that you may use as a model when developing your posts:

Facebook: Ready to work and looking for support on your employment journey? If you are age 18 through 64 and receive SSDI, the Trial Work Period allows you to test your ability to work for at least 9 months while maintaining your benefits!
