• School and Work Estimator
    Young people with disabilities can use the School and Work Estimator to find out how a job can affect their cash benefits and health coverage - and how staying in school can help.

Who is it for?

The School and Work Estimator is for young people with disabilities who have limited work experience.

If you're over 18 and getting SSDI, or want to explore more complicated plans, try the Benefits and Work Estimator instead.

What will I need?

Gather your bank statements and information on benefits you receive from Social Security or the state.

How long will it take?

It will take about 10-15 minutes to complete the Estimator. You can save your session and come back to it later.

Will my information be kept private?

Yes. Any information you enter or store in the Estimator is completely confidential. It will NOT be shared with any government agencies or outside organizations.

Note: This Estimator has been updated to include MO HealthNet's Adult Expansion group (Medicaid Expansion). Get more information about applying for coverage.

The Estimator provides estimates only. This tool can help you and people you work with better understand work and benefit rules. This is not a replacement for a professional benefits analysis. You can get more help from a Benefits Specialist.

Disability Benefits 101 is not a direct part of any government agency and does not offer one on one benefits planning services.
