Can I receive Disability Insurance benefits if I have other income sources?

Yes, you can still receive Disability Insurance benefits in California even if you have other income sources. SDI benefits are not affected by other types of income or benefits, including retirement, worker's compensation, or private disability insurance. However, the total amount of your SDI benefits combined with any other income sources must not exceed the maximum weekly benefit amount established by the program. Your SDI benefits will be reduced if the total income surpasses this threshold. It is important to report all forms of income accurately when filing for SDI, as failure to disclose other income sources may result in penalties or loss of benefits.
