FAQs

What is the difference between Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income (SSI)?

Social Security Disability benefits are for people who experience a disability and can no longer work. You may qualify for this program if you have worked a long time and paid sufficient Social Security taxes. But the government still can deny you these benefits. If you have not paid enough money into the Social Security system to qualify for Social Security Disability benefits, you may still be able to receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI). To decide if you qualify, the government will look at your income and review what resources are available to you. You must have limited income and resources to receive SSI.

Should I appeal?

You should definitely appeal. We can help you get started with your appeal by filing a written request for reconsideration within 60 days of your denial notice. After that, there are four levels of review: Reconsideration, Hearing, Appeals Council, and Federal Court. Contact us today for help with your appeal!

What is the difference between a lawyer and a non-attorney advocate?

Non-attorney disability advocates are trained in the Social Security process, but have not received a law degree. They can help you file your initial claim, but if your claim is denied (and most are) you will want legal counsel to proceed to the next step. If your appeal goes all the way to Federal Court, you will definitely need an attorney. If you have questions about your eligibility, you should probably be working with an attorney.
