Does Social Security turn down every disability case the first time ?The answer to this question is absolutely not. The social security administration does not turn down every case the first time. There is no set number of times a claim has to be denied for an allowance to be granted, nor is every disability claim turned down the first time. Some individuals have medical conditions that meet the medical criteria (or have a combination of vocational, education, and age factors, as well as possessing a sufficient severity of their medical condition), and they may be allowed the first time. Actually, statistical data suggests that about thirty percent of all initial claims are allowed nationally. However, since this also means that seventy percent of all applications for disability are denied, the majority of individuals who are seeking to receive social security disability or SSI disability benefits will probably have to appeal their denial and, possibly, obtain representation from a disability attorney.
