Get The Ball Rolling With Your Disability Benefits!
So you’re out of work and your steady income has stopped. You’ve heard about receiving Social Security Disability, but you have no idea how to start the process. You are not alone.
In order to start the disability process, a formal application needs to be fully completed and processed with the Social Security Administration. The application itself can take a while, but it’s important to disclose everything that’s relevant to your inability to hold a job.
Once the application is completed and processed, it typically takes about 3-5 months to get a decision. If you are denied at the initial application stage, you can appeal this decision and request a hearing. In the state of New York, your case is immediately transferred to the hearing level, but getting a hearing could take anywhere from 6 to 18 months.
It’s crucial that you correctly fill out your disability application. Click here to learn more about the different ways to apply for Social Security Disability benefits.
