Who Does Not Qualify for Disability Claims through Social Security?
Disability claims are not for those who will be unable to work for less than a year. You need not apply to social security if you are in need of short-term supplementation from the government. The only way you can get that waived is if your doctor believes that your disability will most certainly end in death (as in terminal cancer or illness) in which you may have less than 12 months to live at that time. As soon as you are deemed medically disabled, you should start the paperwork filing for your disability benefits. Be prepared that this process is long, tedious and confusing and can leave many people frustrated enough to walk away without the aid of any benefit, regardless of how legitimate or needed their claim is. The government is not one to willingly and quickly dole money out and it is not usual for a claim to be denied more than once at any given time. If you are relentless and determined, the government will eventually give in and you will be given the financial supplementation you deserve.
