In north carolina, how many times are you allowed to apply for disability? In north carolina or in any state, there is no cap on the number of times you may file or apply for social security disability or ssi disability benefits. In fact, there have been recorded instances of individuals filing for benefits as many as 25 times. Why would someone file so many times? Most likely, because they are unaware of the fact that, instead filing over and over again, they should file an appeal. Appeals are generally the more productive option and a claimant's chances of eventually winning benefits will go up substantially if the appeals process is initiated versus simply filing applications time and time again.
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.
"Hepititus c, ,joint pain, very high blood presure (190/110), shortness of breath, possible emphacima, gastric disorders, testicular tumer, and headaches"
"I lost my left leg in an accident then developed a pelvic tumor causing blood clots on my lungs and resulting in another emergency surgery. I have been diagnosed with depression, general anxiety disorder, post traumatic stress disorder and agoraphobia."
"I have Parkinson?s. I have tremor in the left side. Arm leg, hand ect. I have a degree of rigidity in my left hand and arm. The symptoms are progressing and are affecting my state of mind and my ability to continue working. I am currently on several medications which help control the symptoms but only about 50% effective and they have side effects of sleep attacks."
