Furthermore, the law allows for the simultaneous collection of Social Security Disability and other benefits due to the employee, such as Workers’ Compensation benefits.
The regulations governing Social Security strictly define the types of benefits and the conditions qualifying for their receipt. One of the basic conditions is work experience. A person applying for Social Security Disability must demonstrate accumulated work experience. We accumulate credits throughout the entire period of employment, and we can acquire a maximum of four credits per year for Social Security purposes.
Furthermore, the person applying for benefits must be deemed unable to perform any work, both physical and mental. The inability to work is determined by the treating physician. The anticipated duration of the disability should be at least 12 months.
We cordially invite you to our office at the new address in Greenpoint. We will help you prepare documents and submit them to the appropriate Social Security office.
