Understanding Disability Benefits
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) provides financial support to individuals who are unable to work due to a qualifying disability. To be eligible, you must have worked a certain number of years and have a disability that prevents you from engaging in substantial gainful activity.
Applying for SSDI
The application process can be complex, so it’s recommended to seek assistance from a disability advocate or attorney. They can help you gather the necessary documentation and navigate the application process.
Appealing a Denial
If your initial SSDI claim is denied, you have the right to appeal the decision. The appeals process can be lengthy, so it’s important to act quickly.
