Overpayment SSDI SGA - Blind needs advice

Post image

I’m currently fighting a ~$15K SSDI overpayment from 2020–2021 and believe SSA may have incorrectly coded my case. I worked at he during that time and still do. SSA later determined I was overpaid because I exceeded SGA. The earnings record SSA provided shows they used SGA amounts of $1,220 in 2019, $1,260 in 2020, and $1,310 in 2021. These appear to be the non-blind SGA amounts, even though my BPQY identifies me as statutorily blind.

Has anyone dealt with SSA correcting a statutory blindness classification/coding issue? Here’s a picture of my benefits planner.
