Social Security Claims for Disability
Three workers out of 10 of today's 20 year olds will become disabled before reaching the age of 67. To make a disability claim for social security can take 3-6 months for a decision.
Most claims are denied!!
If you are granted benefits, you may be asked to serve a 5-month waiting period BEFORE you can get any benefits at all! And those benefits are NOT always retroactive!
There are many reasons why your claim can be delayed or denied, but you will waste valuable time if you don't go in well informed. It is a complex program to understand, but you can arm yourself with the basics before launching into a prolonged wait that could end up in further poverty and humiliation.
It will take the time for you to read this web site, but if you do, you will see that the information is laid out very logically, is easy to understand and tries to answer all your questions in an open and honest way.
