Social Security Disability Claims Overview

Social Security Disability Claims

If you are unable to work due to a disability, you should file a claim for Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income benefits with the Social Security Administration. There is no cost to file a claim. Both the Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income programs have been very successful in providing monthly benefits to disabled claimants and their families.

However, about two-thirds of all claimants who file an initial claim for Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income benefits are denied.  If you have been denied and cannot work, you should file an appeal requesting that an Administrative Law Judge make an independent decision on your disability claim. Administrative Law Judges routinely issue fully favorable decisions granting claimants Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Benefits. There is no cost to file the appeal.
