If you're on SSI - your benefits are reduced based on some formula.
If you're on SSDI - refer below from the SSA web site:
The trial work period continues until you accumulate nine months (not necessarily consecutive) in which you perform what we call "services" within a rolling 60-month period. We consider your work to be "services" if you earn more than $620 a month in 2006. For 2005, this amount was $590. After the trial work period ends, your benefits will stop for months your earnings are at a level we consider "substantial," currently $860 in 2006. For 2005, this amount was $830. Different amounts apply to people who are disabled because of blindness.
You may need to relocate to a cheaper locale.

If you are on SSDI, any income you make will change it. So, if you get a job, you need to find one that will make more than what you are getting from them.
