Common Disabilities and Their Support Resources
Preparing for a Social Security Disability hearing takes time and effort, but it is essential to give yourself the best chance of success. The hearing is your chance to explain to an administrative law judge (ALJ) why you are unable to work due to your disability and why you should be granted benefits.
The success of a Social Security Disability claim hinges on many factors, one of the most significant being the role of your doctor.
The extensive waiting period caused by the backlog can have profound effects on applicants. Financial hardships may arise as individuals wait for their applications to be processed, potentially impacting their ability to meet basic needs and access necessary medical treatments
Marriage can have implications for SSI disability claims, particularly regarding combined income and resources, spousal income deeming, resource limits, and changes in marital status. Understanding how marriage can affect an SSI claim is crucial to ensure accurate reporting, eligibility determination, and continuation of benefits.
The Social Security Disability process can be complex and challenging, often requiring multiple stages of review and potential denials before receiving approval. Understanding the process and knowing what steps to take at each stage can significantly improve your chances of success.
The Social Security Administration (SSA) requires that individuals continue to meet the eligibility criteria for disability benefits, which includes ongoing medical treatment. If you stop treatment, the SSA may review your case and determine that you are no longer eligible for benefits.
Past under-the-table work can impact your disability hearing, potentially raising doubts about the accuracy of your work history and the credibility of your claim. It is important to be honest and upfront about any past work.
An Unsuccessful Work Attempt is a period of time when you tried to work, but had to stop or reduce your work hours and earnings due to your disability. The SSA allows you to earn up to the SGA level for up to six months and still possibly qualify for disability benefits
Applying for Social Security Disability benefits can be a lengthy and challenging process, and many applicants may find themselves in a difficult situation if they have also filed for unemployment benefits at the same time. While receiving unemployment benefits may not automatically disqualify you from receiving disability benefits, it can potentially affect your credibility
