Are the rules for social security disability cases different in north carolina? The rules for disability cases in north carolina are the same as in any state. This is, of course, where many individuals who file for either social security disability or ssi disability tend to get confused. Both of these disability programs are federal so no matter where you are in the U.S., the rules are the same. This, however, does not change the fact that approval rates on disability claims tend to be different in various states, which, to date, no one has been able to sufficiently explain.
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.
"Multiple back conditions - severe spinal canal stenosis, severe scolisis, several herniated/bulging disks, sciatica, and inflammation on right hip - back pain started in 2002 but gradually worsened over time (all conditions above I was not aware of until recently, as more pain developed)"
"I can't stand or sit in any one position for a long period of time without eventually having gut wrenching pain. I suffer from depression because I can no longer provide my family or myself with a comfortable lifestyle."
"I can't stand or sit in any one position for a long period of time without eventually having gut wrenching pain. I suffer from depression because I can no longer provide my family or myself with a comfortable lifestyle."
