My doctor had been treating me for joint issues for almost 20 years and I asked him for a letter. He said you're not disabled and asked me what I could no longer do. I mentioned a few things and he said write it all down and bring it to me. He took one look at the full page of things I could no longer do and said you are disabled. Then the SS doctor gave me an exam if you can call it that. She had me stand up and squat down, wriggle my fingers and pronounced me healthy and fit for work. What she didn't realize was that I could no longer pick up a pen and sign my name, or that my feet would give out in less than two hours of standing and that my right knee would become unbearable if I sat with it bent for over fifteen minutes. I ended up going to an arthritis specialist who set her hand on my shoulder and had me move it. She said I can feel that it's around 90% worn out and then she proceeded to feel other joints and give me a rough figure of wear. Got my SS approved the second time. I was 58, worked construction for 40 years and was very worn out physically. All I wanted was some of the money I paid in back to live on. Recently the american life expectancy dropped around six years so it makes sense that the govt wants to raise retirement age to 70 now. Most people will never draw a penny of their payments back. Especially from construction workers who rarely live beyond 65.
My dad was an iron worker. He got injured on the job. He could hardly get around. They told him he could be an elevator operator. We lived in a rural community that at the time had 2 elevators. ☹
Good advice . More than half the battle is to pick up a very good attorney to walk you through the process or your going to go through an up hill battle !
Yeah my neurologist decline to help me with ssdi claim , but luckly my main internist doctor did fillied out my paper work but he just quit last month so i am now looking for a new doctor .
My San Diego Kaiser doctor told me to take the paperwork to the DMV and have them fill it out, because they are the ones that are keeping me from working by suspending my drivers license. My hearing is the first week of Dec. 2022. I'm already forced to hire an attorney to get my license back, because after I told the doctor. what happened about me falling at home due to DEHYDRATION and the EEG was also normal, they reported the wrong dates and incorrect info to the DMV. They won't correct their errors, even though, I'm a DRIVER! That's what I do for a living.
I’m confused. In my state I was only asked for records. I was never asked to get my dr to fill out anything, although my Dr does support me. Unfortunately, they are making me go see one of their internists and my case is complicated and requires multiple specialists. I had to explain one of the issues I had to my own primary care doctor. I am not encouraged.
Now what if the Doctor does not help you? What can you do then? Do you have to get him subpoenaed to get your records from him? Maybe even subpoena him to show at a hearing for you?
I was looking up this exact question yesterday ! I wanna thank you so much for making this video . I do have a question though ... where do I get the forms for Functional capacity if I am at the first application stage ?
@@DisabilityAttorneys do I need to contact SDI company to request these forms or they will mail it to me. I applied for SDI but haven’t received any papers yet. Thank you
Be grateful, America. Instead of a doctor, in the UK, we now have a non-medical person whose tick list is only there to 'prove' that you are fit for work. So people diagnosed with terminal cancer with a 3 year life span and undergoing extensive treatments are being pronounced fit for work
My primary care Doctor openly said. He does not deal nor will sign Disability Claims even if You have 100% Medical support. I have had this doctor for years. The issue is Toxic environment with excessive workload. Triggers my PTSD. Should I change doctors or have him refer me to behavioral health who will sign my disability claim?
This is a difficult but not unusual situation. You will need a provider willing to execute the forms on your behalf. I suggest you contact our office and speak with one of the attorneys to discuss in more detail your circumstances and your options.
I have a surgery June 10th but I already asked my doctor if I can apply for disability and he said yes. I have to do a Covid test before the surgery and I have to quarantine after the Covid test. My question is he gave me disability from 6/7-6/30 but I would prefer to apply from 6/6-7/1 will do that be any problem ?
Social security benefits for seniors are an essential safety net for many, but it's also crucial to plan ahead and invest wisely for your retirement. Diversifying your investments across can help build wealth over time. It's never too early to start saving and investing for a comfortable retirement. I’m 63 and my husband 65 we are both retired with over $3 million in net worth and no debts. Currently living smart and frugal with our money. Saving and investing lifestyle made it possible for us this early even till now we earn monthly through passive income. 😊
