SSDRC is published and edited by Tim Moore, a resident of the Raleigh, North Carolina area, and a former North Carolina Social Security Disability Claims Examiner. To learn more about the publisher, click the "About the Author" link at the top center of the page. It is the author's goal that this website--using the author's extensive background as a disability claims examiner, former caseworker in a variety of programs, and involvement in the representation of disability claims--should provide extensive information for the purpose of being the most helpful and best social security disability site online. Note: Filing for social security retirement benefits is a far simpler process than applying for social security disability. How to get disability benefits approved is largely based on proving the extent to which one's condition limits their ability to work. Retirement benefits, by great contrast, are age-based, and the application process is fairly simple. Keep in mind, however, that situations involving early social security retirement, particularly when work issues and self-employment issues are involved, can be significantly more complicated. Disability Representation: California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin. Alabama, Kentucky, Maryland, West Virginia, Oregon, Maine, New Hampshire, Hawaii, Tennessee, Massachusetts, D.C. Various Conditions for which SSD and SSI disability benefits can be awarded: ADHD, Anxiety Disorder, Asthma, Bipolar Disorder, Chronic Fatigue, Cirrhosis, Congestive Heart Failure, COPD, Degenerative Disc Disease, Depression, Diabetes, Fibromyalgia, Glaucoma, Hepatitis, Heart Attack, Lupus, Migraines, Multiple Sclerosis, Narcolepsy, Pancreatitis, Peripheral Neuropathy, PTSD, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Schizophrenia. Regarding Disability information: Individuals filing for disability will naturally have questions regarding disability benefits. Relevant questions will include how to file for disability, how to qualify for disability, how to complete a social security disability application, how to obtain the social security disability status on a case, whether or not to obtain a social security lawyer, how to interpret a social security award letter, the various disability requirements and so forth. Filing for either social security disability benefits or SSI benefits will typically involve applying for disability at a local social security office, though the disability process can be initiated over the phone or online. Though SSD and SSI disability are separate programs, the programs are adjudicated in exactly the same manner, meaning that applying for social security disability is essentially no different than how to qualify for ssi (aside from the asset/resource limits that apply exclusively to ssi qualifications). |
