Culbertson, Jacobs & LaBoda aims to help get Social Security Disability benefits granted for our clients. When you fill out your Orlando disability application, the chances it will be denied are significant. Because of our experience with the Social Security Administration, we know what proof they are expecting and what further action is necessary if your claim is denied.
Not every Orlando disability application gets approved, and want to increase those chances with this guide. If you are looking to receive disability benefits, make sure you follow these three tips for the best results:
Have Your Personal Documents In Order
You need to have your birth certificate, Social Security number, proof of citizenship, and banking information ready when filling out your Orlando disability application.
The application also asks for the information of your current (and any former) spouse(s), divorce information (if applicable), and the names and dates of birth of your children if they are minors. If you want your benefits electronically deposited, you need your routing number and bank account information as well.
Have Access To Your Medical Information
Have Access To Your Medical InformationThe SSA will perform extensive research on your medical condition to ensure you are truly eligible for benefits. Retrieve all medical information from your doctors such as phone numbers, addresses, patient ID numbers, dates of treatments and medical tests, names of medications, and any other information available. The more medical information you have, the better your chances of approval.
Gather Information About Past Work Experiences
Your Orlando disability application will ask about wages earned in previous years, the names and addresses of past employers, a list of all jobs held in the last 15 years, and other benefits (if any) you have filed for.
This information is to ensure you have worked while you were able to. Take action to gather this information beforehand so you are not scrambling to complete your application.
