Qualify for Social Security disability benefits, quickly and easily

This comprehensive and compassionate book covers both SSDI and SSI, shows you how to prove a disability, and explains how your age, education, and work experience affect your chances. Parents will find special information about benefits available to children with a disability.

Learn how to:

  • find the disability criteria for your medical condition
  • prove the severity of your disability
  • appeal if you're denied benefits
  • work part time while keeping your benefits
  • prepare for a Continuing Disability Review
  • and more.

Plus, this book is packed with filled-in samples of all the forms you'll need, including the SSDI and SSI disability applications.

This new edition covers:

  • changes to how attorneys' fees are paid at the federal court level
  • the addition of reconsideration as an appeal step to some states, and
  • new discussions of getting disability for migraines, carpal tunnel syndrome, knee and hip replacements, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia.

With Downloadable Disability Listing: Find out if your medical condition qualifies under one of Social Security's 200 disability listings (details inside).
