Social Security Disabilities
There are many rules and regulations that Social Security disability recipients have complied to and qualified from before they began to receive benefits. Such rules include:
· The disability suffered by a Social Security disability recipient must not be short term, it must be expected to last or have lasted, at least 12 months or must be expected to result in death
· The disability suffered by a Social Security disability recipient must be of a physical or mental impairment
· The disability suffered by a Social Security disability recipient must suffer an impairment which prevents them from doing any substantial work
There are basic rules regarding the type of disability required to receive benefits. Generally, the condition must be medical, i.e. it must be discoverable by a doctor.
Many of the terms used in the qualifying regulations are subject to differing legal interpretations. Sometimes people use the services of a personal injury attorney Phoenix individual. Obviously, many injuries and illnesses qualify as being disabling. In addition, there exists other disabling injuries that start out non-disabling and deteriorate over time due to age or some other reason. These injuries therefore can over time, sometimes become disabling injuries qualifying the person for Social Security disability benefits.
