Utah Work Incentive Planning Services

UWIPS

Learn how working impacts your Social Security disability and other benefits.

Utah Work Incentives Planning Services (UWIPS) helps people who are currently receiving Social Security disability benefits (SSI/SSDI) and would like information on how work may affect their Social Security and other benefits (Medicaid, Medicare, food stamps, housing, etc.)

UWIPS also educates people about work incentives and community resources that might be helpful. To learn more, read our Frequently Asked Questions and a Benefits Planning Study. See also Ticket to Work
