For many individuals who have recently suffered a medical condition that prohibits them from working, the process to file for Disability benefits from the Social Security Administration can be a long, tedious process in many cases. Applying for benefits will require that you submit lots of documentation that will include proof of identity, citizenship, work history, medical condition and any other documentation to prove your inability to return to work. However when you are ready to take the first steps toward filing, there are a few helpful tips to help move the process along a little bit faster. Before applying, be sure to get a copy of your medical records from your doctor, health clinic or any hospitals that you have been to where you may have been treated. This will be very important for the examiners to review all the facts about your condition and medical history. You should have this in your hand when you apply for disability. It will help examiners determine limitations you face at a job. You will also need to have ready a good description of your past employment and work history. This helps Social Security disability examiners review if your condition will not allow you to work or if you can go to a different type of work. It is also important to give a list of former managers or supervisors that you have worked with. The administrator working on your case may need to speak with them as part of the verification process. You should also get a very detailed statement from your doctor on your medical condition. Although many doctors are busy, if you have a statement in your arsenal when you apply, it may help your case. You will need to have enough proof to show that your medical condition prohibits you from returning to work as the administrators will need to see this. It is also important that you don't miss any Social Security medical exams! Be sure to mark the dates of your appointments on your calendar. If you are denied benefits, you need to request an appeal immediately. Many people are denied the first time they apply for benefits, but that does not mean that you should give up. Instead of waiting for appeal forms, you can also get them yourself at your local Social Security office. An advocate or an attorney can assist you with the appeal process as well.
