How to Avoid Near-Certain Failure When Applying for Social Security Disability Benefits

Speaker: Dr. Stan Hatkoff - Member of the National Association of Disability Representatives -

Dr. Hatkoff represents veterans and other individuals applying for disability with the Social Security Administration. You can visit his website at www.disability-representative.com.

As far as disability with SSA, there are several things advocates should understand:

  1. What is the difference between SSDI and SSI disability, and how do you qualify for each?
  2. How to understand the SSA impairment listings and the five-step sequential evaluation process (is my client disabled or not under SSA guidelines).
  3. Representing clients for disability with SSA...an overview of the entire process, time requirements, state level involvement, and how to get paid. An inexpensive course to take to get properly trained for newbies.
