Applying for Social Security Disability Benefits

If you are applying for Social Security Benefits through the Social Security Administration (SSA,) it is not necessary to make an appointment to complete the application in person.  The SSA website will allow you to start an application, return to it at a later period should you desire and complete and receive confirmation of your application. Visit www.ssa.gov to get started.

This is a wonderful tool if used correctly.  However, I caution you to make certain that the application is filled out correctly to the best of your knowledge.  In addition, when completing a new application for Social Security Disability (SSD) Benefits, you must also complete the Disability Report For SSA 3368.  Failure to comply may result in a denial or dismissal of the application.

Unfortunately, we have seen far too often that someone has filed online for disability benefits, however due to no additional follow up, the claim was denied and/or dismissed.

Please do not allow this unfortunate circumstance to happen to you.  Contact the Berkley Law Firm today for more assistance and clarification.
