Benefit Programs For The Disabled
There are two types of benefits programs for disabled persons: Social Security Disability (SSD) and Supplement Security Income (SSI) programs. A person becomes eligible for Social Security Disability benefits if he/she has contributed enough to a social security account. Individuals are allotted “quarters of coverage,” and need to have worked 5 out of the last 10 years to meet the requisite “quarters.”For younger individuals, other options are available. The SSI program delivers benefits based on an individual’s income and assets.
Demonstrating Disability
To receive benefits under the aforementioned programs, a person must demonstrate total disability. The Social Security Disability Lawyer Paulding County trusts most, understands this. Thus, seasoned attorneys will help clients prove their physical and/or mental impairments. These impairments must prevent individuals from performing any kind of a job for a continuous12 months. The goal is to prove that the individual cannot work at all due to the disability. Older individuals are granted certain allowances in meeting these conditions.
