Before you begin this process, it is important to understand whether or not you are likely to be eligible to apply.
This decision is made by the Social Security Administration (SSA) which uses a series of predetermined questions to help them make their decision.
To qualify, you will have to satisfy all of the requirements – being unable to meet just one will render you ineligible.
The questions used in the decision-making are as follows:
- Are you currently not working?
- Do you have enough work credits (if SSDI)?
- Is your condition severe?
- Is your condition considered disabling, or is it included on the Social Security list of impairments?
- Are you able to do any of the work you did before?
- Can you do any other work?
To claim Social Security disability benefits, you must meet Social Security requirements for all of these questions.
It should be noted, however, that you may be unsuccessful in your application, even if you meet all of the above elements.
