New York disability attorneys can help

Due to the complexity of applying for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), you should contact a New York Disability lawyer as soon as possible.

The type and time of your work is important when applying for SSDI. The Social Security Administration (SSA) will review your work history when determining if you are eligible to receive benefits. First, your work history can indicate if you are currently insured. Second, SSA examiners will look at your past work and determine if your disability is severe enough to prevent you from working again. Additionally, the SSA will look at your work history in order to determine the amount of benefits you should be paid if you qualify.

In order to receive SSDI benefits, you must earn a certain amount of credits based on your work history. A skilled NY Social Security Disability attorney can help you determine if you have earned enough credits to qualify for SSDI. Depending on your age, the amount of credits needed to receive benefits varies.

Below are the age requirements for disability benefits:

• You need approximately one and half years of work, or six credits in the three years before you became disabled if you are under the age of 24
• You need approximately half of the time between the age of 21 and the time you became injured if you are 24 to 30 years old
• You generally need at least 20 credits in the ten years before you became disabled if you are over the age of 31
