BOILING SPRINGS, NORTH CAROLINA Complete the following form if seeking help from a disability lawyer or attorney in Boiling Springs, North Carolina NC
Is it easier to get approved for disability benefits in north carolina (for boiling springs and other areas) if you are older? It can be. The rules used by the social security administration to make decisions on social security disability and SSI disability cases tend to favor individuals who are in their fifties. However, this does not mean that you cannot win a disability claim if you are a younger individual. In fact, more than half of all claimants who were previously denied at the application level and on their first appeal are later approved by a disability judge. And this includes younger individuals as well.
Can you win disability for only certain impairments, or on the basis of any impairment?
Answer: The Social Security Administration's disability evaluation system does not focus on a claimant's diagnosis, but, rather, on the functional limitations a claimant has. In other words, the name of the condition is not the chief consideration. How the condition "affects and limits: the indiviual is the primary concern. So, yes, disability benefits can be won on the basis of nearly any condition provided that the condition is sufficiently limiting.
As these hypothetical examples show, disabling conditions can take a wide variety of forms.
"I have Parkinson's disease. Slurred speech and losing voice at times. Difficulty speaking clearly . Loss of balance, difficulty walking. Difficulty getting up from sitting, no strength. Numbness when sitting for long periods. Hands shake under any stress, handwriting went from excellent to poor, practically illegible. Basically, move slowly and cautiously. Poor coordination. Also have burning sensation most of the time over most of my body."
"Anxiety and panic attack disoder. Diagnosed adhd when I was in school. My anxiety disorder has gotten so bad I can no longer function as a normal human being. I have seen several doctors and none of them know what to do. Currently I am on paxil and it is not working."
