Need to Apply for Social Security Disability Benefits?

Surprisingly, many applications for Social Security disability benefits are denied due to incomplete submission and other careless mistakes. This is yet another reason to obtain help from an experienced SSDI attorney when preparing and submitting your application.

If you need to apply for Social Security disability, here’s what you need to know:

While the Social Security Administration is making it easier to apply for disability benefits on your own by way of a phone call, in person or online. Even so, whether you choose to apply yourself or if you work with an attorney, you’ll need medical documentation that legitimizes the severity of your condition or disability. Equally important during this process is keeping up with regular doctor visits and recommended courses of treatment for your condition.

Remember, you will be required to prove that your condition is making work-related activities difficult or impossible. Thus, it’s wise to keep a log of how you feel on a daily basis, including specific ways that your medical condition is preventing you from performing certain tasks such as walking, standing or sitting. You may also note the way your medication affects you. For instance, some prescription treatments impair memory and concentration, as well as one’s ability to maintain a certain pace.

If your medical condition is on the approved list posted by the Social Security Administration, you can be fairly confident that your application will be approved. On the other hand, it’s necessary to consult an experienced attorney that helps you every step of the way, from filling out the application to submitting it and following up.
