61k owed and SSDI cancelled?
61k owed and SSDI cancelled?
I have been on SSDI for 13 years and this Friday I opened mail (letter dated 22nd of last month, I had been busy with school) to something very scary. They claim I have been overpayed for substantial gain activity for the entirety of the last 5 years and that I owe them 61 thousand dollars. My SSDI has also been cancelled, so I am unable to pay rent or buy food. This will also impact my mobility to get to and from work and school.
I have worked a few hours over my limit once or twice but it was my understanding that is allowed? I for sure have not worked over my limit every month for the past 5 years.
I did what research I could and found I was supposed to turn in paystubs monthly, I had no idea and thought they automatically knew my income or my employers reported it to them.
I am frankly scared, struggling to focus on anything else and feel like my world is crashing down.
What do I do?
