Understanding Social Security Disability Programs

The SSDI program is for individuals who have a strong work history and are now disabled and unable to continue gainful employment. SSI, on the other hand, is a need-based program that supports individuals with limited income and resources regardless of work history.

Eligibility for either program requires a medically determinable disability expected to last at least 12 months or result in death. Conditions may be physical, mental, or a combination of both.

Why Claims Are Denied and What You Can Do

Many applicants are denied benefits the first time they apply. But a denial is not the end of the road. You have 60 days from receiving your denial letter to file for reconsideration. If that is also denied—as is common—you then have 60 days to request a hearing before an administrative law judge.


This is where having a Social Security disability attorney in Monroe becomes vital. Apex Legal Group PLLC can guide you through the appeals process and present a strong case on your behalf.
