When Should You Apply for SSD?
As soon as you and your doctors agree that your disability will last a full year, you should apply for Social Security Disability benefits. Many people falsely believe you must wait until after the 12 months without work, but the truth is that as soon as you believe you will be disabled for a year, you should apply.
This is especially true, since it can take a long time to successfully win your SSD or SSI benefits. For some people, the process can take as long as two years. If everything is done completely and professionally the first time, the approval is likely to come sooner. However, it is never a good idea to take chances. Contact a lawyer who can guide you through the process.
