  • How Do I Communicate My Functional Limitations?
    In your Initial Application, you told SSA why you cannot work. This might be your physical health (back, hands, arms, legs) or your mental health (difficulty with people) or both. Each time you go to the doctor, you should tell your doctor every symptom you are experiencing that is preventing you from working. Always remember, if a medical issue is preventing you from working, but it is not consistently reflected in your medical records, to SSA, it is as if it doesn’t exist.
  • What Are My Chances for Approval at the Reconsideration Appeal?
    Low. About 90% of Reconsideration appeals are denied. Reconsideration Appeals are typically a “rubber stamp” of the Initial Application. Denials are a very normal part of SSA’s process and not something to take personally. SSA is a large, inefficient government system that forces the majority of claimants to file two appeals prior to any chance at approval.
  • How Do I Become Eligible for SSI?
    Before filing for SSI, it is important to know what the requirements are to receive benefits. Eligibility is based on you:
    • Being disabled; or
    • Being blind; or
    • Being over the age of 65; and
    • Having limited income and resources; and
    • Being a U.S. citizen, national, or a certain type of alien.
    You cannot be confined in an institution at the expense of the government, which includes some hospitals and prisons. Other qualifications that you must meet may exist depending on your situation, which is why speaking to a social security disability attorney is always in your best interests.
    For a child to qualify for SSI, they must have a physical or mental impairment expected to endure more than 12 months or result in death.
