Everything You Need to Know About SSD
If you have become disabled, you may be entitled to receive disability insurance benefits. Regardless of your current financial status, Social Security Disability benefits can still be offered as an alternative source of financial support as you will not have the ability to work or provide for yourself or your family.
Understanding Your Rights to Social Security Disability Benefits
- Claim Your Social Security Disability Benefits Immediately: If you have paid Social Security taxes, failing to file could mean a reduction or denial of your benefits. Filing for SSD immediately after your disability can improve your chances for acceptance.
- Eligibility Requirements for Social Security Disability: In order to qualify for SSD, you must have worked in jobs covered by Social Security. The courts may require proof of your employment as well as medical evidence meeting the requirements of disability.
- The Importance of Legal Representation for SSD Claims: Seeking SSD coverage can be a lot more complicated than one may assume. Going to your hearing without proper legal counsel could bar you from receiving the money that you need to support your family and lifestyle.
