A work incentive benefits analysis is intended to support a person with a disability in understanding the relationship between their employment goals and their benefits. These services should be provided throughout the VR process but are especially important when changes to employment or benefits occur. It is generally a point-in-time analysis, and additional information and/or analysis over time may be needed.
