When should you file for disability benefits ?"Should you file for disability" and "when should you do it" are two important questions for individuals who have significant and limiting impairments (mental or physical). You should consider filing for disability if your medical condition interferes with your ability to perform work activity. Social Security bases medical disability on an individual’s ability to engage in past or other work activity. In addition, you should file for Social Security disability or SSI if you have medical and/or mental conditions that have prevented you from working for twelve months, or if you expect to be out of work for twelve months due to severity of your impairments. Bear in mind that Social Security disability and SSI disability are total disability programs and neither is a partial or short-term disability program.
