Don't Get Denied: Receive The Social Security/disability Benefits You Deserve

Don't Get Denied: Receive The Social Security/disability Benefits You Deserve

By:


Though Social Security Disability is a social insurance program that is meant to protect those who become disabled and cannot work, too often the Social Security Administration will deny those who are disabled. In fact, an estimated 64 percent of initial applications are denied, so this is a fairly common problem that people face when they apply for Social Security Disability benefits.

There are several reasons why someone may be denied Social Security Disability benefits, but the most common include: you are making too much money to qualify for benefits (if you make more than $940 a month, you will not be eligible to receive benefits through Social Security Disability); it has been determined that your disability will not last longer than 12 months, or will not result in your death; you have not provided the medical records or other documentation that SSA requested in order to determine if you are eligible, or you missed a scheduled appointment to meet with an eligibility worker; you are not following the treatment plan prescribed by your doctor to improve your condition so that you can return to work; the Social Security Administration was unable to locate you after you applied for benefits.

If you are denied Social Security Disability benefit payments, your only option will be to file an appeal with the Social Security Administration. The laws and rules that govern Social Security Disability eligibility are complex, and if you find that you must file an appeal, you may find that it will be necessary to hire an attorney to represent you through the appeals process.

There is a massive amount of red tape involved in applying and being accepted for Social Security Disability benefits, and a lot of the time people are denied because they do not know how to work through the system. A qualified attorney can help you to prove your eligibility for Social Security Disability.
