Social Security Disability Lawyers in Glendale

Getting the financial support that you need after getting hurt or becoming too sick to earn a living in Glendale can be a challenge. There are a number of government programs available to Americans who are no longer able to work due to an injury or illness, such as the Social Security Disability Insurance program and the Supplemental Security Income program. But like obtaining any government-sponsored financial benefits, there is a rigorous and confusing application process through the Social Security Administration, and denials of benefits are a common occurrence for many applicants.

Obtaining Social Security Disability Benefits Can Be Challenging

Sometimes, you may have an injury or a medical condition that makes you unable to work. When this happens, it advisable to seek social security disability payments to cater to your medical expenses and other losses you may have incurred. To qualify for this, you need to provide proof that you have worked and submitted your tax returns into the program. The system is quite complicated, but knowing how it operates will guide you on the steps to take.

What Determines Your Eligibility for the Program?

Potential beneficiaries of the Social Security Disability Program need to fulfill specific obligations to qualify. You need to have performed your duties long enough to help you pay Social Security taxes. The total credits accumulated will be calculated against your age. For instance, you can earn a maximum of four credits each year at a job. You can only qualify for the benefits if you attain at least 40 credits, where 20 of those should be accumulated in the last ten years before you got an injury or a terminal illness.

The nature of your health also plays an essential role in determining your eligibility. It must have been sustained for at least a year or expected to result in your death. Your doctor’s report needs to prove that you are disabled, making you unable to continue working. However, your claim must be approved by the Social Security program. The website has a screening tool to help determine whether you qualify for disability benefits.


How Long Will it Take to Apply and Qualify for Social Security Benefits?

To apply for the benefits, you can visit the Social Security’s website or seek the services of Phoenix workers compensation lawyers. You will need to provide your birth certificate, a doctor’s report and test results, W-2 forms or self-employment tax returns and an adult disability report from your employer. It can take you up to eight months to process the documents, attending the appointment, and waiting for your reports to be scrutinized.

What to do if Your Social Security Disability Claim is Rejected

You may have qualified for the claims but still get rejected. Giving up is not an option because it is your only way of getting a second chance in life. A worker’s compensation lawyer will request the department to intervene on your behalf. Some crucial documents may be missing and they want to re-evaluate your case for further intervention. Remember, it can take several months to obtain more information in readiness for submission then wait for deliberation.
