I wish if I could make you realize how happy I am now-a-days because I have got my social security disability benefits. Few years before my life turned into a painful slice. Certainly, many a times, I have tried to squash it out but couldn't help. My disability was evident. Then I applied for disability benefits. On the very first attempt it got rejected. But, reapplying perfectly with a social security disability lawyer turned my life into a worthy one.

I know there are lots many other disabled people who need help just like me. I do understand the pain of being disabled and therefore I want you to get the benefits what you deserve. Let me present you a few tips, so that you can proceed to the legal works easily.

If you are planning for applying to the social security disability benefits, then you might have noticed that there are two types of plans available, such as:

SSDI or SSD: This plan is made to give monetary benefits to the people who are physically disabled and cannot take part into employment.

SSI: It is for the people who are disabled but has a very little income to survive with.

A disabled person can apply for the above two plans depending upon their physical and economical condition.

What are the qualifying criteria??

• One must be physically or mentally unable to participate into "substantial gainful activity"
• Such physical condition of him or her must last at least for 12 months or cause in death.
• He or she must be under 65 years of age.

What you need to have for applying??

As per suggested by my legal adviser, a disabled person must prove his disability in front of the social security administration in order to get the benefits.

Medical certificates are the first weapon to apply for social security disability advantages.

They judge you in terms of:

• If you are going through substantial gainful activities?
• If your impairment severe?
• If you were able to perform your responsibilities in the past?
• If you can perform any past work or work in the economy?

Verifying you among these criteria, the social security disability judge gives his words on your behalf. It changes your life from homelessness and dependability to security and monetary gains. Apply for social security disability benefits now to have the real flavor of life once again.
