I am in the exact same situation that you are in. I am disabled and unable to work out of the house and refuse to accept that I cannot learn another skill. Because of this I have learned the ins and outs of Social Security Disability. At this time it is perfectly acceptable for you to go to school and try to learn a new skill. You do not need to report it unless you are attempting a schedule that would reflect a difference in your physical disability. For instance, if you were able to take classes for 30 to 40 hours a week they would determine that your medical status may have changed and require that you get another medical physical. If your classes are under 2 hours per day you will have no problems whatsoever. Currently persons on SS Disability can earn up to $900 additional income per month. Once you have finished your classes you should call your contact at your local Social Security Disability office and double check the amount because it is subject to change. Best wishes and good luck!
