What does “disabled” mean, anyway?

disabled

When applying for SSDI or SSI benefits, the Social Security Administration (SSA) must consider whether or not you are “disabled.”

What does the SSA mean when they say “disabled?”

1) You must have a severe impairment;

2) You must be unable to do substantial work because of your medical condition(s); and

3) Your medical condition(s) must have lasted, or be expected to last, at least 1 year, or be expected to result in your death.
