Which of the following can result from changes in employment status related to Social Security benefits?

A change in employment status can indeed lead to a loss of eligibility for certain Social Security benefits, which is why this answer is correct. For instance, if an individual who receives Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) returns to work and earns above a certain threshold, they may no longer qualify for those benefits. Social Security has specific work incentives and rules, such as the Trial Work Period, but ultimately if the individual earns enough consistently, it can result in a loss of eligibility.

In contrast, other options present scenarios that are not guaranteed outcomes of employment status changes. While there can be adjustments to benefits based on income, a guaranteed increase in monthly benefits is not a result of changing employment status. Fixed salary adjustments are subject to various factors and are not specified by SSA regulations in a way that directly ties them to individual employment status changes. Immediate reassessment may occur under certain conditions, but it is not an automatic outcome tied directly to employment changes, especially since there are various steps and evaluations before reassessment of benefits. Therefore, the correct answer highlights a significant consideration regarding employment and Social Security benefits.
