Understanding Social Security Disability - Business NewsWire
Navigating the treacherous terrain of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) can be quite intimidating – unless, of course, you learn how the program works. While eligibility criteria are stringent, if you are truly disabled and have earned at least the minimum number of SS credits required, applying for SSDI can go smoothly if you understand the basics of the program. There are, of course, some minimum eligibility requirements, such as having worked enough, and recently enough, to qualify. But the real backbone of eligibility for SSDI benefits is the severity of your disability and how long it will last. Medical records will be crucial to a successful application and the severity of your condition must be confirmed by your doctors. Sometimes, it may also be wise to engage assistance from an attorney who specializes in Social Security Disability, especially if your initial SSDI application is denied and you wish to appeal that denial. All of this is clearly explained in this Business NewsWire article at the Big News Network.
Also, if you’re unsure about how these basics apply to you, or if you have any questions about your individual situation under Social Security, note that the AMAC Foundation provides a free-to-the-public advisory service to help Americans navigate the complexities of this program.
