  2. What SSDI is and whom it benefits? SSDI, or Social Security Disability Insurance, is a federal program that provides financial assistance to individuals who are unable to work due to a disability. To be eligible for SSDI, individuals must have a qualifying disability and have worked and paid Social Security taxes for a certain amount of time. SSDI benefits are designed to provide financial support to individuals and their families during difficult times.

  3. Ingoude Company www.reallygreatsite.com Benefit amounts The Social Security Administration (SSA) uses a formula to calculate SSDI benefit amounts based on an individual's average lifetime earnings. The formula takes into account the individual's highest 35 years of earnings, adjusted for inflation, and calculates the Average Indexed Monthly Earnings (AIME). The AIME is then used to determine the Primary Insurance Amount (PIA), which is the monthly benefit amount the individual is entitled to receive at full retirement age.

  4. Application process Determine eligibility Before starting the application process, the individual should make sure they meet the eligibility requirements for SSDI, such as having a qualifying disability and having worked enough to earn work credits. Gather documentation The SSA will require various documents to process the application, such as a birth certificate, Social Security card, medical records, and work history. Complete the application The individual can apply for SSDI benefits online, over the phone, or in person at a local Social Security office.

  5. Denied claims If an individual's SSDI claim is denied, they have the right to appeal the decision. Reconsideration: The first step in the appeals process is to request reconsideration. This involves having the claim reviewed by a different SSA representative than the one who made the initial decision. Administrative hearing: If the claim is still denied after reconsideration, the individual can request an administrative hearing. Appeals Council review: If the administrative law judge denies the claim, the individual can request a review by the SSA's Appeals Council.
