Answer 1

you dont say how much the check is  

go to social security .com  and should find the answer

I am on disibity as well  and i would have no problem spending it

cause the check will not be  on taxable income

like i say it will depend  

i doubt your check is big enough to worry about

did you know  people can earn like 700 month working and not be deducted  

Answer 2

yes you will have to reapply but you should not have any problem getting reinstated!!
